I've been cleaning the engine bay all day. I would check the lines but I don't know exactly what I'm looking for. I'm aware that there shouldn't be any loose hoses. Other than that I got my Aem a/f gauge to work. It's reading all sorts of number while idling.

All the wires for the amp take that out you dont need it. By the way i dont have a boost leak tester i left it at vegas. In sorry i couldnt help you that much im so busy right now.

Might have Tephra Mod

Also the line i had replaced from the intake manifold to my BOV was still leaking for some reason. After that, i sprayed down the lines again and saw bubbles coming from my BOV itself. Pulled it off and found out the previous owner had used a knockoff eBay one. I replaced it, cleared the code and i haven't had the check engine light come on anymore. It should be noted that after I had the lines and BOV replaced I did an oil change and replaced the spark plugs and spark plug wires. That could also have contributed to solving my misfire issue, but idk, I'm still a noob too lol. Good luck on finding the problem

Does anyone have a boost leak tester?
808-748-1873 text me

i wouldnt suggest a stock BOV, they tend to leak after 25psi. you should also replace all your vacuum lines and ziptie them, make sure they are routed correctly.
