After awhile it goes away and everything acts like nothing happened. The last time it did it I put my scan tool on and I don't recall if there were any codes. The next time it does it I'll check and see if any codes present. If there are I'll post them. I will try cleaning the throttle body connecters. Thank you.

Its happened again and it set the following codes;
P0305 Cylinder 5 misfire,
P1314 Misfire rate catalyst damage bank 2,
P1316 injector driver misfire emissions emissions damage/misfire rate excess emissions
P0355 ignition coil E primary/secondary circuit
P1266 Security input vehicle immobilized theft detected
I have changed the spark plugs with the correct temp rating plugs NGK Platinums, I have not cleaned the throttle body contacts yet. Gonna try and do that this weekend. If there is anything else it could be the information would be greatly appreciated. I usually do my own work on my cars, hopefully this won't be too big to handle.

Clean or replace the MAF sensor; clean the throttle bore and plate and connectors; check battery voltage; check for leaks along air tube from air filter; change the air filter. Run a good fuel system cleaner through the a tank (BG44K or SeaFoam).
If this is happening at the first cold start, it could be a bad temperature sensor failing to recognize the need to enrich at starting. Gotten cold here in Tidewater lately.

How are the cylinders numbered? I know that on Fords they are numbered front passenger side, front to rear 1,2,3,4 etc, and on Chevys they are numbered 1,3,5,7 etc.
The reason I'm asking is that in my manual it says for code P0305 its number 2 cylinder. I tried swapping what I thought was the number 2 cylinder and the same code came back. Just want to make sure that I get the right one without playing musical coils. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again.
