I was told that I have a 2nd cylinder misfire which may be responsible for a vacuum leak in my 1996 Ford Taurus GL. I am in the process of trying to find a repair facility and want to know the process of fixing this issue and an estimated cost so they don't try and blindside me with fees.
I have a vacuum leak , what is the estimated cost to fix that? I just want an idea of what to expect at a shop. I was told the vacuum leak being fixed can resolve the cylinder misfire.
 
Well, first off, a cylinder misfire cannot be responsible for a vacuum leak - on the other hand, a vacuum leak can certainly be responsible for a cylinder misfire.
If your vehicle has a vacuum leak, get that fixed first - it may well solve your cylinder misfire concern.
 
If the misfire is because of a faulty spark plug or water in your cylinder, it could be between free (use canned air to clean out your spark plug cylinder) -100 (tune up). It also could be way worse (200-500) if a valve was broken/not working properly or if your timing is off.
