Default finally figured it out

my 5th spark plug wire was not making a good connection i ended up pulling the boot back and getting the metal connector connected to the sparkplug and now there is no misfire and the SES light is no longer on. but odly enough there is a vacuum ball missing according to a good friend of mine now just need to find one so i dont lose acceleration goin up steep inclines. thanks to everyone trying to help.
