    I got a 2001 2.4 Tacoma . I stopped driving it and switched to a new car because it started to flash check engine light and drive really rough . I’m starting it up again and it’s still flashing when I drive . And it shakes super hard . I got codes P1300 igniter circuit #1 . P0304 misfire #4 p0301 misfire #1 but I’ve had that misfire number once since I’ve had the car and it didn’t cause troubles. I’ve replaced the coils and sparks twice now . I don’t want to replace them again . Also got p0300 and I think I’ve had that one too . What should I do. Thanka

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Maybe try a new valve cover and spark plug tube gaskets. IMG_3810.jpg

    Could be a few things but if it's been sitting a while you may have bad gas. That could certainly make a few injectors create a lean condition and misfires. I would do a compression test to verify that low compression isn't the cause. It could be a massive vacuum leak as well. Pop a smoker on it.
