You really need to look in the computer at the data. Anything that can allow excess air to pass over the 02 sensor will cause the PCM to add fuel to achive a 14.7 to 1 air fuel ratio. The data will tell you if you have an idle issue or a cruising issue since both scenerios use differnt sensor inputs. Its possible you have clogged fuel injectors or maybe you just got a bad batch of fuel, or both

Horrible Random misfire in car

This is common issue with Infiniti I30 1999-2001.

When the coil packs fail they burn up components/parts on the engine computer ECU. If the problem gets worse, you will need to replace the ECU or have it rebuilt.

Is your check engine light on?
You might also get code P0505
Technical bulletin also recommends to replace
The Idle Air Control Valve MUST be replaced prior to re-installation of the ECM, or immediate damage to the computer will occur again.

http://www.myairbags.com/product/ecu-infiniti-i30-2000-2001
Common Failures:
  • No Start, Hard Start, Engine Stalls
  • Rough Idle, High Idle, or Idle Up and Down
  • Misfire to one or more cylinders
  • No signal to the ignition coils
  • Engine Trouble Codes For Idle Control Valve (IACV)
  • No Communication With Computer
  • Replacing IAC Does Not Fix The Problem

The GLS with a 3.4 engine is running rough. It will idle high (sounds like a chain saw) with lots of exhaust. It will "hiccup" going 60 mph. The service engine light comes on when it...

I had a similar problem on my Aurora 4.0. These had a common problem with the air intake plenum gasket leaking. The car, in this condition, couldn't measure the air flow properly and the result was a poor air/fuel mixture. This is easily seen with an ODB-II scanner looking at the fuel trims and O2 sensors.
The SES light means you are getting CODES. These are certainly going to lead you in the right direction.
The hiccup sounds to me like maybe a crankshaft position sensor - you should get this fixed ASAP if it is, as you can trash the engine if you don't. It will throw the appropriate code, so start with getting the codes scanned.

When engine gets hot, idle is up and down with the engine light on. OBD code gives a P0505 code.

per this address "http://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/" p0505 is a "IAC (Idle Air Control) System Malfunction" it gives some good suggestions to look at to find a solution for your problem.

I have a 2004 Toyota Corolla and my check engine light is on. The code is P0505: Idle system malfunction. I have replaced the Idle Air Control Sensor and PVC (?) Valve and have no clue what else it could...

P0505 is correct, but replacing the IAC won't help if the PCM cannot control and/or monitor the operation

you need to measure voltage at the IAC and/or the signal return to the PCM
