I have a 06 PT Cruiser with engine light on. it blinks when idling and solid when driving. had the engine computer check. says 2nd cylinder...I changed plugs twice on #2 and all others once. replaced coil sensor. reset computer each time. light returns. motor run a little rough. put seafoam in gas and a little in oil. light went out for a short time but returned next day. is this a possibility of a sticky valve and an oil change would do the trick. help

Take it to a autoparts store and have code erased for free.

We had it erased several times. Would this cause the engine to continue to run rough?

Check the #2 plug, look for carbon, or incorrect gap.
