    Update. The plug moving and torque adjustment did not work. Still cylinder 1.

    I also plan on a conservative tune for some bolt ons around the 300/350 zone once my power train warranty is up.
    Could be a failing injector seal on #1, mine popped popcorn when I lost #3 on my '08 LNF. I don't remember when they switched to the upgraded (black) ones, should have by yours though. COB will know.

    2010 had the upgraded seals so he should be good.

    The sound is not as close to popcorn (not super loud) as it is a poofing/misfire sound from the exhaust. I guess I'll have to make an appointment and hope my useless power train warranty covers it
