Default Missfire help plz

So i did a clutch install this weekend. Took it for a drive, clutch works fine, but now i have a missfire. I have checked all the plug wires and they look good. I got the codes as follows.

p0300
b1001
u1040
u1064
u1016
u1096
c1242

I also reused the air tub gaskets could that be an issue if they are leaking? Any info would be great...



Thanks

Default Misfire

I had the same thing happen today. I eyeballed the plug wires and they looked ok. When I physically checked them though the wire on the drivers side rear was in fact a bit loose. Caused the same symptoms you are having. That is a tight area but on my fifth try (or so) of squeezing my hand down in there I was able to get it seated all the way in. Fixed the problem.

If all seated maybe a bad wire or bad plug??

Good luck.
