misfire on cylinder 5

Ok so I went to a shop and got it lived scanned and number 5 was horrible. I'm guessing it might be the injectors so I took a straighthead screw driver to it and it sounded like it was clicking right but I know that doesnt tell me if its weak. Is there any place besides a shop that I can take it to, to get a ohm reading in them?
 


Check the spark plug first. It's the front bank so it should take you no more than a few to check it. It'll tell you more than trying to blindly figure out what causes it.
 
I just replaced the wires and sparkies about a month ago with copper plugs and delphi wires so. It said bank 1 running lean so I swapped a coil with a newer one but it went back to the same feeling after a few days. Just feeling the shaking and hesitant accelerating. It also doesn't get up and go if I floor it, it doesn't ramp up right away to higher rpms it gradually climbs up into speed
 
Make sure they are gapped correctly, many times they are not gapped correctly from the store. Which plugs are you running and is the car stock?
