Default Miss fire all 4 cylinders

So I just picked up my ap1 the other day and when I test drove it no cel light. Long story I get home scan it from a buddy's scan tool and found I have 5 codes 1-4 is cause of each cylinder miss fireing and the 5th I forgot exactly what it said but it had to do with the 4 miss fires. Myself and a buddy were thinking the stupid dealer put cheap gas in it ? They had the car at the dealer for 1000 miles would running shit gas make it do that ? Some things I was reading up said to change my retainers and what not and one said check the coil packs. It's barely a missifre not sluggish feels fine I just need help where else to look. Thanks guys for any help at all!

Return it to the dealer and find a new one. Look up lemon laws. They probably broke something in that 1000 miles cleared the CEL before your test drive and screwed you.

"Just picked up" or "just purchased?"

"Dealer?" Honda dealer? Honest Joe's used car dealer?

"The other day" meaning when?

What gas is in the car now?

Used cars rarely have any warranty That big AS-IS sticker means just that.. Many state laws allow business transactions to be voided with a few days of the event -- days depend on the state.
