Service Engine Light
My CE LT4 with Elliot Portworks LE2 package triggers the engine light like every three weeks. The "misfire" code comes out and yes I have a OBD scanner and I can delete the code.
What it could be? The ECM was tuned, all parts are new, plugs are new...
The Vette runs great and STRONG. Would the IAC or TBPS have anything to do with this? That part is old/original

P0300 Random Misfire Detected
Freeze Frame Data
Fuel Sys 1: CL
Fuel Sys 2: CL
Calc Load (%): 4.31
ECT(°C): 79
STFT B1 (%): 0.78
LTFT(%): 3.13

MAP(kPa): 67.00

Veh Speed (km/h): 0

Reading at the idle Eng RPM (I was at a stop light) in the code reader and what is in the tach are two numbers. Obviously it is too low, right?

Right now it indicates random misfires. If the last number of the code were a 3, it would indicate cylinder #3 is misfiring.
The underlying cause is often a lean fuel condition, which may be due to a vacuum leak. Check hoses, wires etc. Its a ****ting intermittent fault.
in the intake manifold or unmetered air getting past the airflow sensor, or an EGR valve that is stuck open(your is LT4, no EGR, correct but a plate back there).

I haven't drive her yet because I'm doing the rear window, the rear pillar and targa weatherstrips but even tough I torque everything to specs (FSM) the EGR plate, the MAP, The TB and the Air Pump bolts were loose. I hope the intake manifold itself is not loose, I torque that SOB 4 times using the proper sequence.
BTW, the targa's weatherstrips were a P A I N I N T H E A X S Z

I did apply dielectric grease to the plugs and to the opti's terminals but I'll check on those tonight
