Thanks in advance for your help.

It seems one of my pistons is not firing. I replaced the;
Battery, ignition coil (it was burnt) and there was oil all over the tip of the ignition coil. I changed the spark plugs and the battery. Occasionally I will change the spark plug in cylinder number four and it seems to run great for about ten minutes then back to misfiring.
I feel like there is a problem getting power to some part. Maybe a fuse oh, I do not know.

I had the computer connected to a code reader and came up with the following codes:
(PO 335) Crankshaft sensor "A" also
(PO 223) Throttle pedal position sensor switch 2 PCM is too high.
(PO222) Voltage low throttle position or sensor.
(PO123) Throttle position sensor.
(P1051) Amperage in heated air flow sensor low.
(P0335) Crankshaft position sensor "B".
(P1051) Amperage in the heated air fuel ratio sensor low.

Hello,

Lets clear the codes and then just turn the key on without starting the engine then run the codes again to see what comes up. If no codes start the engine then shut it off and run the codes again. We are trying to see which code is most prevalent.

Here is a guide:

Also lets do a compression test.

Please run down these guides and report back.

Cheers, Ken

Thank you very much for your reply Ken and team. I reassessed my work installing valve cover and found the gasket was not completely in place. I also double-checked my ignition coils and found that one was still faulty. Now she is running fine. Thank you very much and sorry to bother you. It was my neglect. I had a feeling that the gasket was not completely in place.
That is what I get for working in a parking lot in the dark.

Hello again Ken and team,

I did come up with another question/issue please.
I am including a video to help show what I mean.
I cannot find any schematics showing what wiring system is just in front of the passenger seat in the motor compartment.
I checked connections with a testing light and one came up bright and another one very dim or even blinking.
My code reader still gives me a p0335 generic. Crankshaft position sensor "A" circuit
and manufacturer control.
If you could help me decipher what the wiring connection is in front of the passenger area by the motor that would be a great help.
