Have a miss. Codes are p0302, p0305,p0171, p1000 in that order. Changed plugs and wires clean the mass air flow, no change.

So is the miss only at idle and while driving down the road you cannot feel it?

Is it a constant miss like those two cylinders are not firing? or does the miss come and go?

good afternoon,

the first thing I would do is verify fuel pressure. with the lean code. I would make sure the fuel pump is pumping the correct pressure. you can rent a tester at a parts store to check.

Checked the fuel pressure and it is getting the correct amount of pressure. It is getting 40 psi running with switch on 29 psi.

I would be looking for a vacuum leak with the p0171. it is more then likely a vacuum leak.
