I suspect that being number 4 cylinder, you may be leaking coolant from the heater hoses directly above the number 4 cylinder. The number 4 plug is hard to get at but can be done with a swivel and extensions. I would remove the plug, clean it up, and clean up the socket and plug wire. Put it back together and see if that fixes your missfire at least for a few days until you sell it. I know a guy here where I live who is good with fords and he could fix it for you permanently for around $250. If you DIY, you can change the heater hoses for around $50 but first make sure that they are in fact leaking and that is your problem. Good luck
