Default Problems....

Well, the car is showing me that it has a mind of it's own once again. Maybe one of you guys can steer me in the right direction on this one.

After about twenty minutes of driving, the car feels as tho it "pulls time" and starts missing very badly. SES flashes indicating multiple misfire i assume, and if you continue to drive several miles. The SES stays on, and the car straightens itself out. When you get back in the car the following day, the SES is usually off, until it acts up yet again.

This happens each and every time i drive nowadays. The temperature hand seems to bounce all over the place too on the thing. I don't know if that would have anytihng to do with the fits that it gives me. The temp hand goes from anywhere from approximately 175-225.

The only mods i have are a 160 stat, Free ram air, and a catback.

Any advice would be appreciated.
