Are you sure you have the wires correctly routed? Did you ever put dielectric grease on ALL the plug tips?
And when you say you swapped it out, these are brand new parts...not leftovers, right?

i seen bad injecters that wernt sprayin gas make the motor loose compression in those clinders. and injecters that were leaking fuel, washed the cly, which also lost compression .if its a miss fire fix it will cause bigger problems.

i did a compression check on the cylinder that keeps mis fireing and it was only holding 50 psi.the specs from ford said it should be 125 to 250 psi.so i guess i got my answer about the mis fire in one.the thing is the car runs good.i driven it over 800 miles already with no problem.its just when im under hard acceleration the car hesitates a little here an there through out the RPM Range.So i can tell its looseing power.i dont want to rebuild this engine id rather run in into the dirt.then get a good used motor and switch it out myself.is there any thing i can do to PROLONG THI ENGINES LIFE?like put thicker motor oil in it.or is there any additives out there that i can ad to the oil?

Well thicker oil ain't going to help with low compression, what I would suggest is doing a leakdown test and hopefully its only a bad valve.

Well he said that he was just going to run this engine into the dirt. I was just offering a good engine with very low miles for a good price.
