My wife filled up at a gas station we have never used before, and drove about 20 miles when the car suddenly started misfiring on cyls 5 and 6. I had a issue with bad gas previously and think that is what this may be. Any suggestions?
I have had intermittent left and right catalyst codes recently, too. But, the engine did not seem to be affected by them.
P0305 is a misfire code in cylinder 5. Not sure whether you have a v6 or a v8, but regardless, this car in particular goes through ignition coils pretty quickly. The best way that I have found to deal with a misfire code is to change all 8 ignition coils and spark plugs at the same time. Make sure that you use only Motorcraft coils as the PCM does not play well with after market coils. rockauto.com has them for around $50 per coil
Hi
P0305 is misfire in cylinder #5.
P0306 is misfire in cylinder#6.
P0316 is misfire on start up.
Have the plugs on those 2 cylinders, and the 2 fuel injectors checked, also
check for spark from the coil on those 2 plug wires.
Please get back to us if you have further query or else please
accept the solution.
