My wife’s friend, (you know how that goes, I get volunteered to work on stuff) has a 2006 Honda Odyssey. She is getting random misfires. She took it to Auto Zone and got a scan. The codes read P0302
Definition
Cyliinder misfire detected – cylinder number 2
Explanation
The powertrain control module monitors the crankshaft speed and has detected a misfire condition
Probable cause
aa1 Ignition system fault – spark plugs(s), ignition wires, coil
aa 2 – vacuum leak
aa3 injector fault
aa4 high or low fuel pressure.
It has around 46,000 miles. She drives it to work round trip five miles daily. I think the only thing she does is change the oil.
I thought of Gary Allen. Didn’t he dumped two quarts of ATF and one quart of MMO into the gas tank of one of his cars and fogged the neighborhood? That would clean up the cylinders (hahahaha).
I could not work on it for long last night. I stay up way too late working with my daughter on her homework.
I did dump in a bottle of Chevron Techron Fuel System cleaner and drove around the neighborhood. You can feel the random misfile when you’re idling.
I took off the engine cover and three spark plugs are easy to get to.
Any suggestions?
