Default ummm, swap coilpacks from #3 and #4 to #1 and #2

if problem stays at cylinder #3 and #4 replace the spark plugs, if it moves to #1 and #2 replace the coilpacks. That's what I would try.

cleaned filter and recharged with K&N cleaning kit. Then check engine lite goes on. cleaned out MAF and lite still on. I got frustrated and went to pep boys and got me one of those actron code reader thngs for oboII and found out that it was the MAF. Went to go check on it again tonight and played around with the Actron and cleared the code to. Then i noticed that the idle was alittle rough, so i tried the actron reader and found 3 codes 1) 0300, misfire 2) 0303 misfire on cylinder3 3) 0304 misfire on cylinder 4. That the hell is going on. I did a search on it could I have a bad coil pack? I never replaced one so am I due for changing it? I have APR 93 octane 100 octane chip that has been in there for about a year. Please give me some advice on this. Thanks in advance

Default if its a coilpack...it would be very obvious and difficult to drive the car...

you shouldn't drive it far as it could damage your cat and then you'll have a bigger price to pay for repairs.

Default Unfortunately

Some coil paks only fail under load. I had a random misfire when boost was > 20 psi that was solved by replacing a coil pak, but in normal driving, everything seemed fine.
