    Hey guys!

    my 2002 is having some issues.
    Does that shaking thing for about 15-30 seconds then it stops.

    I had a multiple engine misfire code p301

    down stream 02 sensor was changed about a year ago, just changed the upstream 02 sensor today.

    Drove it around the block and no more issues.

    On my way to work I could feel a slight stumble or hesitation when I was giving it more gas. Then the check engine light came back on.

    Drove the next 20 miles with zero issues and the mpg gauge was around 45-50 the whole time.

    Things I haven’t changed:
    -coil packs
    -fuel injectors
    -PCV valve

    Does the 1st gen have an EGR to clean?

    I have no coolant on the spark plugs or coolant consumption. My oil is not “milky”

    Can you clarify the code(s)?

    Random/multiple cylinder is P0300.
    P0301 to P0304 are for cylinders 1-4.

    Have you cleaned the MAF and the throttle body?
