Assuming that you plug gaps are correct and all connections are good then it sounds like an injector. Check your wiring harness to the injectors, sometimes critters will chew thru them. If you dont see anything try swapping the #1 and 3 injectors with two others and see if the misfire follows them.

Check plugs and make sure the spark plug wires are secured, check the wire connection to the coil, if this is all good then swap injectors from 1-2 and 3-5 cylinders. Retest, if the misfire is STILL in the # 1 and 3 Cylinders, then you know your issue is NOT a fuel issue, and we can procede with the diagnosis.
