Which engine misfire pattern arises when inconsistent fuel injection timing causes alternating rich/lean combustion?

💡 Explanation

When injector timing is inconsistent, cyclic misfire appears because fuel delivery alternates rich and lean in a repeating pattern linked to cylinder firing sequence, resulting in unstable conditions. Therefore cyclic misfire results rather than alternatives which require spark, continuous flooding, or hot engine conditions.
