As you can see when a cylinder misfires it will disrupt the engines natural balance. Now, the real problem here is why the engine cylinder misfires? A lot of reasons why an engine cylinder misfires and is very difficult to test but the most common causes are bad spark plugs/wires, a vacuum leak or burned and out of adjustments of one or more valves.
In any case, all causes low compression on the corresponding cylinder thus engine misfiring occurs. Another possibility is a wrong anti-freeze/water ratio.
