      Quoted From Trcustoms719:

      Put a long screw driver or mechanics stethoscope on the #3 injector and listen to see if it sounds like the others.
      What did the plug look like?

        If the system has been open or empty for 24 hours total the receiver dryer has to be replaced. It has dessicant (that junk that comes in little packets and says do not eat) which absorbs the moisture and it becomes saturated so the receiver dryer must be replaced

          get a hold of a fuel pressure gauge and see what kind of fuel pressure you’re getting when the engine starts to misfire

            To be honest it does kind of sound like a cv joint problem, even though you’re not getting any popping or clicking sound. I’d wait for someone more educated to chime in on this issue though

              You need to get a scan tool and figure out what code is causing your light to come on

                Good find on the fuse. If it blows again I would suggest doing a good visual inspection of the wiring to whatever is on that circuit. You could have an intermittent short that caused the fuse to pop

                  Well its hard to say without using a manifold gauge set to read the pressures but my first guess would be that the high side pressure is getting too high and is causing the high pressure cutoff switch to shut the compressor off to prevent damage. Check for any obstructions/debris around the condenser/radiator and check for adequate air flow. See if both cooling fans come on.

                    first thing I would start with is a good tune up. New fuel filter, air filter, etc…. If you have access to a fuel pressure guage I would check to see what kind of pressure you have

                      maybe a leaking fuel pressure regulator thats flooding the engine when it sits over night and upsets the air/fuel ratio enough to cause a misfire. After the car is driven for a few seconds the excess fuel is burned and the engine runs normally…. just a suggestion

                        Check to see what shares a common ground with the flashers. ScannerDanner had a vid where when the headlights were on the truck would fall on its face.Turned out the headlights and fuel pump shared a common ground and the ground was having issues with high resistance

                          G200 by the left kick panel is shared by the cluster assembly, wiper motor, flasher unit, sunroof/moonroof….. I would check that ground and make sure its clean and tight. If it isnt in good shape than maybe its pulling system voltage down due to high resistance. Maybe i’m grasping at straws, idk.

                            When it stops blowing cold air check to see if the compressor clutch is still engaged. Maybe a problem with the hvac control switch

                              Correct me if i’m wrong but couldnt a loose more missing gas cap cause this code as well, or would it be a similar evap code?

                                  Personally I would never use them. I would run the lug nuts down snug with an impact or by hand and then use a torque wrench to finish them off.
