When you get a mis-fire code, does the car pull timming or go in to limp mode?

Can anyone explain all that for me? It would be appreciated, thanks

 

I'm pretty sure there is no such thing as limp mode on an Evo unless you consider knocking into the low octane maps limp mode

 

theres no such thing as limp mode, when the car misfires, the ECU detects its it & will pull timing

 

i seen a few people on here refer to that as limp mode, thats why i was asking.

So does it pull a certain amount of timming through the whole map or does it go in to low oct map? cause my low and high are the same right now.

 

I've had my car go into limp mode and it is was associated with a MAS fault code. The effect was full rich and ran on the lo octane maps.

A misfire usually triggers a P0300 code and a SES light. But afaik no power is lost, unless it is associated with knock, boost cut or what the ECU detects considers a engine damaging condition.

 

I have used the term limp mode before in reference into to the engine break noise my car makes after throwing a p0300. My afrs go extremely lean and I virtually can not accelerate. This condition persists until I let off of the gas and sometimes until I pop the clutch.
