Move your coils around. See if the misfire follows. They maybe after a few other things you can look at coil drivers/PCM.

I bet you have crap built up in your fuel rail from the bad gas. we see it all the time from bad gas, #7 is where all the crap ends up, clogging the injector and causing a misfire!!!

I've heard that injector failures, especially #7, are somewhat common.
