I notice my car bogging out while giving her some gas and shortly after check engine light comes with code p0301. At the advance discount auto part the guy said it could be my spark plugs I told him I replaced them back in March of 2011 bought them anyway as well as new spark wire, CEL was gone and the car still ran like shit and the CEL is back on code p0301 :confused:
 
Did you check you're spark pugs? Any oil on the electrode? Are you're wires installed correctly? Sometimes people don't install them right and by this I mean they don't install them all the way on the spark plug or on the coil pack. I've seen this a lot mostly on aftermarket wires.
 
What is needed to clean injectors ? Do I use a in tank cleaner also ?
 
for the tank use seafoam its the best imo you can get it at walmart or any part store. for the injector i would take it out and look at it. you can soak it in higher octane gas or just use carb cleaner or something like that.

Still no fix after cleaning injectors and changing coil pack, next is a fuel regulator :confused:
