Default What to do about misfire code after cam install.....

Well, I am still getting a misfire code in my PCM after the install of my new cam. The guy who installed it said that his scan tool showed that it was all the cylinders showing misfires, not just a couple. It doesnt seem to be affecting performance, and with the more miles I put on, I can really start to feel the added power of the cam. But, how can I get rid of this misfire code so my SES and check engine light go off? And no, I dont have edit. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

If you let it idle for too long, it throws the code...just tap the gas to bring the RPm's to about 1000 if you are in traffic for about a minute...it works for me
