Highlander 2004 Is Not Moving Well On Acceleration by lincolnola: 11:51am On Mar 02, 2016
The check engine light has been on since I bought the car . recently it started dragging on idle mode and comes to halt a times when driving and depressing the accelerator without corresponding speed.Scanner shows P0300 (Random misfiring ).
Please,what do I do to overcome this issue as it's sapping my fuel seriously.

Bad spark plugs
Bad speed refernce mark sensor

Bad ignition coil
Low pressured fuel pump
Dirty airfilter
Clogged up throttle body
Clogged up noozles
Bad mass airflow sensor

And mamy more. A physical inspection would need to be carried out on the car . If you are in lagos free diagnosis for you ends by 5pm tomorrow. Call 08156087872 or 08165520837. Bbpin is 7BE1C522

Yes. Start by changing spark plugs. Use recommended spark plugs. Yours should be with part number "SK20R11". Denso iridium

All listed above can cause a misfire. How are you expected to know the culprit if a trouble shooting process is not initiated

Random misfiring is an indication of incomplete combustion in more than one cylinder .
Any competent professional who know his onion should be able to troubleshoot this issue for you .
