Well i had posted here awhile back about my slight misfiring problem. Well now i encountered another problem this time it's much worse. Well 2 days ago i was driving down a really beat up road and there was a dip up ahead so i slowed down but it still bottomed out my car no big deal so i kept on going well i stopped at my friends house for about an hr or so then i took off and all was good till about 5 miles down the road i felt a severe misfire . Had to make a turn but when i got off the gas the car stalled so i threw it in neutral and started up but it was running rough pretty badly. Everytime i came to a stop or got off the gas it would stall so i had to keep putting it in neutral and rev it then put it in gear to at least get some speed. Now i bought some new plugs,wires,cap,rotor,and even the coil and none solved the problem. it idles fine in park/neutral but in reverese or forward gears it idles really rough. I wonder if something happened to the car when it bottomed out or if it was gonna happen eventually. Any help would be appreciated thanks
Btw it's a 1996 2.2 4cyl 5sfe Forgot to mention it throws out the code p0300 and more specificly p0301 and p0302

have you looked up what those codes are yet? check wiring, intake plumbing, more wiring. hows your fuel and air filters?

cylinder 1 & 2 misfire.
i would start by checking that the plug wires are fine, along with the wiring to the coil. plus good time to take the plugs out and check them

I just bought a set of ac delco platinums yesterday and some wires and a coil but the problem still persists. The wiring it good and so is the intake plumbing. Im starting to suspect something with the head i should be able to pull it off today and take a look at it

Kinda hard to describe but it'll just run rough you'll know when it has a bad misfire. and it wont make a noise other than a putting sound out the exhaust which is what mine did before it took a dump on me

check the injectors for those cylinders, along with the compression.
use a spark plug tester to make super sure they work just peachy.
