Default Help with fault codes (misfires)....

Feels like I am in "limp mode". Wouldn't trouble codes "16684 - Mult Cyl Miss, and 16688(misfire cyl 4), 16689 (misfire cyl 5), 16690(misfire cyl 6)" cause limp mode?

Plugs were just replaced too...

Original coils packs and o2's.

Ideas?

Default "Bosch PFR6Q"? Aren't those NGK? Could be wrong. I thought they are one colder than stock NGK?

Might wanna start by looking into that, and the gap, might be off.

Was it doing this before these plugs were put in?

Misfires were present prior to spark plug change. I'm stumped. Coil packs? o2's? MAF?
