Recently had diagnostic my 2002 Mazda (626) I have a misfire (refer to photo) approach?process of eliminate replaced air filter,spark plugs,checked plugwires what's mynext economical approach
If you know this is a "misfire" then you need to isolate which cylinder is misfiring. Once uou have done this the only items in the sequence would be the plug, wire, if this model has separate coils, the coil. If it has a distributor, the distributor cap and rotor. If it is electronic fuel injection, it is possible the injector is bad which would effect performance, but don't know if you would notice it as a misfire.
Unfortunately I can't seem to open your photo to view it properly. Have a look on the following link which explains about the error code you have:
