i got these codes
po300,po301,po302. these are for 1 and 2 cylinder misfires. now i did a search and they have similar symptoms. i started the car and it was idling like it was going to shut off , when driving it seemed fine. everytime i start the car this would happen. when i rev up the rpm then it starts to miss , or chug. check engine light came on. i was taking it to a mechanic later in the week. we were trying to see if there is a direct fix to try first . were gonna pull plugs , wires, and then go from there. any ideas? btw, i just had the distributor cap replaced about a year ago.

 

a random misfire can be caused by a couple of things.

what year is your civic? what motor/ecu do you have?

also have you tried these steps?

Sounds like a good start, more so depending on how old they are, they probably need replacing.

Also, check your timing!

 

Year, makes, and model of car please.

Some Civics are covered under a 150,000 extended Honda recall/warranty coverage due to misfire codes.

Before you do anything else let us know what type of car it is.

 

sorry about that it is a 98 civic ex 1.6 l engine.
