Ran an obd2 scanner for my check engine light it is coming up as a multiple misfire, but I replaced spark plugs and everything and when it’s runs it seems like my car is trying to shut off, and it bog really bad. Also, when driving the RPMs won’t run. how it’s supposed to be?

Good morning,

What else did you replace besides the plugs? The wires and coils are also a possibility.

I would also check the compression to be sure the engine is good internally. You should have 140-160. You can rent a tester to check this at a parts store.

Also, check the fuel pressure to be sure there is sufficient fuel to the injectors for running the motor correctly.
