    o2 sensor or intake gasket, if it's intake gaskets you'll notice it throwing lean codes and running big time rich. o2 sensor will do the same but its usually a lot more noticeable when its an intake gasket. So a little drop in your fuel mileage it o2, huge drop its gaskets

    I tried the brake cleaner around the intake and it didnt' make a bit of difference, could it still be the intake gasket?

    Mine actually goes dead at idle, especially if coasting in neutral. It surges at idle, and has thrown the multiple misfire about 3 weeks ago. Gonna change 02 sensors and see what happens

    I'm facing the same problem right now. I just replaced my plugs wires are on the way to me. Going to chang my fuel filter and get some injector cleaner and see what happens. I have spare coils packs so I just might change them as well and see what happens.
