Default P0300 Misfire Code...Amongst Others

I posted a little while back about a misfire issue I was having. The initial code was the P0300 random misfire. This would happen in the morning, or with high humidity. The engine would misfire, and when I would stop, the idle would drop to around 500 and surge back to normal, 800. Like everyone else, I thought it was the plugs. However, as time went by, the PCM threw a lean fuel mixture code, so I had to take it to the dealer. They found that my injectors for cylinders 2 and 6 were clogged, even though I ran injector cleaner through the car. Bad gas from the hurricanes? The injectors were cleaned, and I haven't had any problems since. Just thought I let you guys and girls know if you were having the same problems.

Yeh, I have had bad gas issues with both my cars. The cars are filled at a different gas station.

Consequently. getting ripped off from the high gas prices and poor quality SUKS.
