SOURCE: error codes 442 and 456 on 2003 Chrysler Town and Country

Could be the gas cap.  Do you fill the tank with the engine running?
Otherwise, check the hoses near the Evap canister.  I have 2003 T&C and had the small leak and large leak codes.  I looked at the evap cansiter and the hose coming from the fuel tank vapor line had a huge crack in it, to the point it had fallen off the evap caniser.  I trimmed the end of the hose and reconnected and voila, no codes.
The evap canister is on the driver's side of the van, underneath, slightly behind the drivers seat.
BTW, to clear the codes without an OBDII reader, remove the negative cable for 5-10 minutes (15 to be safe).  The computer resets and clears the codes, except for one that it sets saying loss of power to the memory.

SOURCE: locassion of output speed sensor on 2003 Town and Country

The input and output speed sensors look identical on the connector side. The one over the solenoid pack is the input, the one closer to the left frame rail or left front wheel is the output sensor. I hope this helps.

1999 ford f350 v10 gas won't stop misfiring with new plugs and some new coils. What to do?

If your 1999 Ford F350 V10 gas engine is still misfiring after replacing the spark plugs and some of the coils, here are some additional steps you can take:
  1. Check all the ignition coils: If some of the coils were misfiring, it's possible that the other coils are also damaged and need to be replaced.
  2. Check the fuel system: Misfires can also be caused by problems with the fuel system. Check the fuel filter, fuel pressure, and fuel injectors to ensure they are working properly.
  3. Check the air intake system: A dirty or clogged air filter can also cause misfires. Make sure the air filter is clean and replace it if necessary.
  4. Check the vacuum system: A vacuum leak can cause a misfire. Inspect all the vacuum lines and connections to ensure they are tight and not leaking.
  5. Check the timing: A misfire can also be caused by incorrect ignition timing. Check the timing belt or chain to ensure it is properly aligned and not worn out.
  6. Check the engine compression: Low compression in one or more cylinders can cause misfires. Perform a compression test to check the compression levels in all cylinders.
If none of these steps resolve the misfire issue, it may be best to have a professional mechanic diagnose and repair the problem.

Can you help, my car seems to have a misfire or something when putting foot on Excelerator peddle it sort of jolts the whole car and seem like it's gonna die? (Ga14ds caburator'd engine)

Based on the symptoms you've described, it sounds like your car may be experiencing a misfire. Here are some potential causes and solutions:
  1. Ignition system: A faulty ignition system can cause a misfire. Check the spark plugs, ignition coil, distributor cap, and ignition wires for any signs of damage or wear. Replace any faulty components.
  2. Fuel system: A clogged fuel filter or malfunctioning fuel pump can cause a misfire. Check the fuel filter and pump to ensure they are functioning properly. Consider cleaning or replacing the fuel injectors as well.
  3. Carburetor: Since your engine is carburetor'd, a dirty or faulty carburetor can also cause a misfire. Clean or rebuild the carburetor as needed.
  4. Vacuum leaks: A vacuum leak can cause a misfire. Inspect the vacuum lines and hoses for any signs of damage or cracks, and replace any damaged components.
  5. Timing issues: If the engine timing is off, it can cause a misfire. Check the timing belt or chain to ensure it is in good condition, and check the ignition timing.

What would cause my 01 acura cl 3.2 to shutter i changed coil packs and spark plugs and it still sounds like its missing

  1. Faulty fuel injector: A clogged or faulty fuel injector can cause insufficient fuel supply to the engine, resulting in a misfire.
  2. Ignition system problems: A faulty ignition coil, ignition control module, or distributor can cause a misfire in the engine.
  3. Vacuum leaks: A vacuum leak in the engine can cause an imbalance in the air-fuel mixture, leading to a misfire.
  4. Faulty EGR valve: A malfunctioning EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve can cause a misfire by altering the air-fuel mixture in the engine.
  5. Low compression: Low compression in one or more cylinders can cause a misfire.
To diagnose the specific cause of the misfire in your car, you should take it to a qualified mechanic who can perform a diagnostic test to pinpoint the issue. They may use a scan tool to check for any stored error codes in the car's computer or perform a cylinder compression test to check for any issues with the engine's compression. O

2008 saturn vue random/multiple misfire

A random/multiple misfire in a 2008 Saturn Vue can be caused by a variety of issues. Some common causes of misfires include:
  1. Spark plugs or ignition coils: Worn or fouled spark plugs or faulty ignition coils can cause a misfire. These components should be checked and replaced if necessary.
  2. Fuel system: A clogged fuel injector or a problem with the fuel pump can cause a misfire. The fuel pressure should be checked and any clogged injectors should be cleaned or replaced.
  3. Vacuum leaks: Leaks in the vacuum system can cause a misfire. These leaks should be located and repaired.
  4. Exhaust system: A clogged catalytic converter or a problem with the exhaust manifold can cause a misfire. These components should be inspected and any necessary repairs should be made.
  5. Engine control module (ECM): A problem with the ECM can cause a misfire. The ECM should be checked and reprogrammed if necessary.
It's recommended to have the vehicle scanned with a diagnostic scanner to retrieve the trouble codes and determine the source of the problem. Once the codes are retrieved, it would give a better idea of what component is causing the misfire.
It's always recommended that you take your vehicle to a professional mechanic to diagnose and fix the problem, as these are complex systems and require specialized knowledge and equipment to fix.

Causes of p0300, p0302, p0304, p0306 in 2000 toyota avalon

P0300 = Random/multiple cylinder(s) - misfire detected.
P0302 = Cylinder 2 - misfire detected.
P0304 = Cylinder 4 - misfire detected.
P0306 = Cylinder 6 - misfire detected.

A misfire can be caused by a few things. The most common causes are usually spark supply or fuel supply. Get BOTH of these checked.
All the misfires are on the same side of the engine so I would suspect a fuel rail or an injector issue on that side of the engine.

What is causes of multiple cylinder misfire in chevy lumina 1999

The P0171 co is probably the one that is causing the misfire. It's a lean code meaning the engine is not getting enough fuel. This can cause a condition known as lean misfire and cause the misfire code. A vacuum leak is a possibility as well as a bad MAF sensor or even poor fuel pressure. The p0341 code is a code for the cam sensor. Typically this will not cause any issues other than the code.

Will a bad knock sensor cause a misfire. car is missing change the plugs no help codes are misfire and knock senser sometimes a #2 o2 sensor. 1999 maxima thanks for your help.

A Bad Knock Sensor will not cause a misfire, unless the advance is off due to a faulty Knock Sensor. The O2 Sensor will cause a random misfire.

Good luck on this repair.

Engine light on

They are still looking for a cause because it isnt misfiring right now or because they cant find the cause of the stored misfire codes ?
If it is misfiring right now and they cant figure it out then perhaps you should find new mechanics !
I have seen a lot of bad coils on the PT.
Misfire is usually caused by spark plug wires first, spark plugs 2nd, and coil third.
If it isnt misfiring now, spray down the wires with water. If it misfires after that replace the spark plug wires and spark plugs and try again.
If it still misfires then the problem will likely be the coil.
