P0300*5 or P1300*3 *1 and some of P0301 - P0304:Random misfire.Description
Misfire detection is accomplished by monitoring the crankshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluctuation (CKF) sensorwhich is attached to the crankshaft.
lf misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected. the MIL will blink during the time of its occurrence, and DTCP0300*5 or P1300*3'*' and some of DTCs P0301 through P0304 will be stored. Then, after misfire has ceased, the MIL willcome on.
lf misfiring that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on, and DTCP0300*5 or P1300*3 *a and some of DTCS P0301 through P0304 will be stored.NOTE: lf some of the DTCS listed below are stored at the same time as a misfire DTC. troubleshoot those DTCS first, thenrecheck for the misfire DTC.

Description
The CKP Sensor determines timing for fuel injection and ignition of each cylinder and also detects engine speed. The TDCSensor determines ignition timing at start-up (cranking) and when crank angle is abnormal. The Cyp Sensor detects theposition of No. 1 cylinder for sequential fuel injection to each cylinder. The CKP/TDC/CYP Sensor is built into the distribu-ror.
