HELP PLEASE!!!!! misfire issue
HELP PLEASE!!!!! misfire issue Please if anyone can help me i cant figure out the problem with my car. the story with it is that it started last august i took it around the block then pulled in the garage then it through a po300 misfire code and a po443 air evap system then i turned it off no more start. I did a fuel pressure test ended up with no pressure so i changed the pump and also swaped the opti with a freinds one that i knew was working now the car starts and idles and reves fine but the misfire code is still flashing after i erased it and ran the car again. could any one help me figure out wat could be causing the missfire codes to come up?

Plugs & Wires
Coil
Opti
ICM
Replace parts in the order, check all wiring to/from/in between. Good luck man.

Had same problem. my opti was only 10,000 miles old and had p0300 code. come to find out the plugs i put it (ngk tr55) i had broke the tips off a few and the car had a miss. well i when i just put my headers on i put e3 diamond fire plugs in and new plug wires and no more po300 code. i just have to get all the emissions codes tuned out. but those are the only codes i get now. i would recomend e3 diamond fire plugs. You dont need to gap them and i know a lot of people that run them in high horsepower cars and they say they are the best they have ever used. Just my 2 cents
thanks guys youve been alot of help im pretty sure its plugs when we ran the car the year before we sprayed it and it was breaking up at the top of the shifts because of the fuel pump i think i burned up a plug then. also when i started it today got alot of carbon smell to the exhaust, smelled real rich so ill try those plugs that you recamended thanks!
