I've seen P0300 appear when one or more spark plug wires weren't fully seated, and this sounds like it may have been your problem. When you switched #1 and #3 wires, you probably corrected it.

Gotta push gently until you hear/feel the click.

OK last week cruised her 3 times all were long rides all kinds of traffic no probelms...........then today it did it twice....RIGHT AFTER I turned the car off for 10 mins and then drove it again, basically starting it whil ehot. Again that wa swhen it happened the last time, does a hot start narrow it down or point out something? I went out to eat had it at full op temps for 10 mins, sat down ate and went out about 45 mins later and it buckled a few times then went away.

Damn it drove fine for a few weeks then tis week P0300 AGAIN! This time was the same as last, it was hot out and I drove it for 10 mins to the store. Went inside for 15 mins came back out and started it up hot, and at low RPMs in all gears the car bogged and studdered, have to punch the throttle to get through it. It did this for 10 mins to my next destination. Stayed there for 35 mins came back out and she was fine. WTF?
