Hi my car has has a check engine light on before and it goes away. What it does is it won't move very fast and the tacometer clicks at 0-500rpms. Then when that goes away for a while, when the car is stopped it idles very low like it's going to stall and it resets my stereo and my clock and it idles rough for a few days and goes away. I've replaced the coils plugs wires air filter, and ran fuel injector cleaner through it. Nothing is working. What could it be?

Check grounds. All you can find, check battery and battery cables. Follow these links. Also have the codes read, Autozone does it free, post all codes here.

Hi Think what might be happening is at Junction Block 2 where all items effected receive power. Located on left side dash,see figure, Check connections, for anything burnt/melted.

All grounds are good, engine code is misfire P030030. Checked all fuses and wires. Nothing out of the ordinary.
