MIL light on - should I try to fix it myself?
I have the following DTCs:
P0302 - Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
P0304 - Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
P0300 - Random Misfire
P1399 P - Random Misfire
P1456 - EVAP Emission Control System Leak Detected (Fuel Tank System)
I have a MY02 with 75k miles. I had the plugs replaced by the dealer for the TSB. I was thinking about replacing the spark plugs and erasing the codes to see if they come back and was hoping someone could tell me if that's a good idea. I know you're not supposed to erase the codes before having a professional look at it (I am certainly not a pro) but I thought this might be a good way to troubleshoot the issue.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
