Default Still Miss fire code after changing plugs

Hi Everyone.
Tried the self help; read thru the threads after getting p0302 and p1319 codes.
I have a disco 2003 with 130,000.

I still have the codes after changing the spark plugs and wires.

What do I do next? Really need help. Bought the car about a month ago.

What brand of wires and plugs did you install? What octane gas are you using?

Used high octane since I bought the car.
I checked and there is no spark from #2 wire coming from the coil. Could my coil be bad?

I had code before and after changing the plugs and wires.

Hopefully this helps someone. If you replace the wires and plug and you still have engine misfire, check to see if u have sparks through the wires coming from the ignition coil. No spark? Your coil is bad. Check used parts first before u spend $400.

You can not change your coils without removing your manifold. The will fix your issue. Mine is fixed.
