    I told you it was the antithieving mod. If it's dirty maybe they won't try and steal 1500 dollars worth of crap out of my car......again. I'm just about done with this car too I think. New job on the horizon, mo money mo problems. On topic...I run a 3.1 on my Gen V

    Take a look at 99% of my posts... Your initial post is what led me to think you were doing mod after mod while having major issues. I'm not typically a dick, but when someone pops in and posts the way you did, catches me in the right frame of mind.... yeah once in a while I'm a dick too. Sorry. It was neat how you said misfires, didn't mention the kr because you don't have it (we assume it) and then a ton of mods added.

    Misfires w/o a cylinder doesn't make a lot of sense though. Even an Aeroforce would should it by cylinder.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    You cant pick up misfires via PCM if the P0300 code is disabled.

    If its not disabled then you will still have the other codes availible. (P0301-0306)

    Also with the aeroforce in the main menu there is an option called "Misfires" try selecting that and see what it says.

    Would definitely be wise.

    And if things don't check out. A leakdown test would be the next logical step.

    Leakdown should always be the first thing to do...I think its fairly easy.
