Ok i did some research i found #1 to be drivers rear which was the easiest one to do and that doesn't make sense. I used a very little anti seize on the threads and a drop of dielectric grade pin the end of the could would that effect anything?

Like Tim says. Check the clip. After that, I would swap it with another cylinder - both the plug and coil.

When you do, check that number1 plug is tight. I've heard if loose plugs that idle fine but miss at rpm

Also It's not the first time that I've heard of a new plug or coil that is bad.
