I got my codes checked and they said multiple misfire. When I first start it up and got up a hill is sounds like it wants to stall and seems like it lacks power. Also if I drive overtime it seems like it wants to stall. I changed the plugs and wires about a year ago and changed the 02 sensor about a month ago. Any idea would be great thanks
