p0300 stumping this gearhead....
Completely stock 05civic ex se. Been trying to track down a p0300 (&0301,0302,0303,0304). Only does it as the car heats up to op. Temp. Every every path I test (ignition,fuel & air) come back inconclusive. The only thing that temporarily eliminates this misfire is chevron techron concentrate fuel system cleaner. I dont know enough (even with the month and a half of research) about this car to test voltages completely cause it seems to change everywhere I look.

Valve adjustment?
EGR distribution plate passages clogged?

Re: p0300 stumping this gearhead....
I'll get get a freeze frame here soon. I wouldnt think valve adjustment cause when the cleaner is in it, it runs almost perfect. If I could describe it in a few words what its like, its as if the system forgets or loses when it needs to fire like its a few degrees off. Then it catches back up to where it needs to be. Until I slow down, then it forgets again when I accelerate.I havent gotten any lean codes, o2 codes, catalyst codes or anything other than 0300-0304. Btw compression is 183psi across all 4 cylinders.

Big bottle or small?
