Default Bad running engine

Hi
I have an 4,0 V8 S-type from 03/1999 - been running 80k Km.
I have replaced all the coils and sparkplugs, with no positive result.
It seems to be misfiringor not firing on one of the cylinders (V7)
The are no fault indication/read out on the dashboard.
can anyone please help
