Replace coil packs wires and plugs if you drive it whille its missfiring it will ruin your cat

And clean the IAC valve, that could be the 505 code.....if the IAC isn't broke. Hopefully it's just dirty. Might wanna go ahead and clean the egr if the IAC is dirty because that can make it run like s*** too and mine threw no codes when it was doing it, just made car die when stopped at light. 300 is gonna be coils plugs wires or combo of the 3. +2 on not driving with misfire codes...........

if you have gapped the plug correctly and you have clean the iac, then move on the EGR and MAF. at this point we suggest that you use the search feature avail on the top right side and the how to section.

if it wasnt your egr what was it?..and i cant find anything on cleaning iac or egr? And as far as ive read..to reset the ecu you unplug the ground\negative and hold the brake for like two minutes then wait a few more before plugging it back in is this true.

that should do it. if all of your radio presets are gone then you are successful...!
