Canada 2003 Jerking on eccellerating & Codes

Ok, first car was working fine. Got gas and car starts jerking and running rough- even on idle. Sounds like it was running on 3 cylinders. Going up hill- no power and engine light would flash. Once up to speed it would run, soon as I shift or would eccellerate- loss of power. Started burning gas...

Took the car and got the codes read:
102
112 or 113
304
351 or (354?)will confirm

engine light was on and flashes at times
__________________________________________________ _____________
  • Changes the #4 cylinder coil- in the morning
  • changed the air filter(was filthy)(afterwork)
  • got MAF cleaner and cleaned Mass Air Flow Sensor(after work)
One I changed the coil- it fixed the idling and got the power back
Once I changed the air filter and cleaned the MAF- THE ENGINE LIGHT went off, but there is still hesitation- now it feels like it's running out of gas and the next morning the engine light was back on- next day ithe engine light is back to flashing when I press on the gas.

It's not burning as much fuel anymore

DOES ANY ONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?

From what I have collected from the forums I have seen:

Symptoms:
Jerking
Stalling
Hesitation
Stuttering
Engine Light on
Chokes when given gas
Check Engine light comes on

Error Codes:
p0300: random misfire
p0302: cylinder 2 misfire
P0303: Cylinder 3 misfire
P0031: o2 sensor related
P0133: intake leak
P1310: Ignitor #3 Circuit problem
p1349: Gear stuck in lean position?
P1310: Ignitor #3 Circuit problem

Causes:
One guy drove through high water
One guy drove in rainy weather
One guys car sputters driving rain
My car was underwater essentially

Suggested Solutions:
Change Fuel Filter
Check the air filter
Use fuel injector cleaner
Clean/Change Mass Air Flow Sensor ****Most Popular Solution***
Change/Repair Oil control valve (OCV)
Reset the ECM by disconnecting the battery **Fairly Popular**
Tape up/Check/Change Throttle vacuum related hoses *So So*
Silicone spray ??????<-dont know what thats for.


Also see the MSN AUTO article

Edmunds Article

Edmunds and MSN say the same thing about the MAF sensor being a common cause of problems.
