+1 Bad plugs, or plugs not gapped right will cause mis-fire in all cyl. Make sure it's colder than stock plugs. And check the gapping on them before install.

when you hooked up the emanage did you set the jumper settings? cause i had the same problem when i first got my emanage i never changed the ignition juimper setting from 5v to 12v! trust me its that!!!!!! my car wouldnt start when it was cold i would have to start it with the factory ecu and then when warmed up i then could start it with the emanage, so try that first before you buy new plugs.

ok then well just do the jumper settings. or check to make sure all the jumper settings are correct. all you have to do it open up the emanage and look.
