I have had a low operating temp code 4 a bit now but has not affected the driving of the vehicle. I believe need to replace thermostat. but just yesterday I seem to have begin loosing alot of power vehicle struggling to make any kind of hill and overall performance is poor. Got a cylinder 2 and 6 misfire code. could the low temp code be causing the problem or is there a seperate issue? Anyone experience this? Thanks

yeah I think the low tem is causing the misfire, a thermostat may be a good idea, but I think your problem lies within the engine coolant temp sensor, and as the sensor gets bad it will retard the injector pulse
