Cylinder misfire. 2010 clio 1.2 turbo

Ok guys. Car running like poo. Cylinder 3 misfire. Checked plugs and plug 3 is black dry soot at bottom. I will get plugs tomorrow. My question is, will I be just lucky to replace plugs and that will be it or is the injector causing this as its only on one plug??.

Swap the plugs around and see if the misfire follows.
If it stays on cylinder 3 then you can swap the injectors round to see if that’s the issue.
If it still stays on 3 then coil pack.

Thanks. I tried to get to the injector earlier but the fuel rail is in the way and didn't have to much time to look to see how I can remove it

Yeah if its anything like the non-turbo d4f it's an inlet off job.

So new plugs fitted and car is even worse now. Proper missing. All is tight. Next route. New coil pack and leads. Which I've just ordered. Hope this will solve it as getting to the injector looks like a pain
