C.E.L On
 
I put in an intake and had no issues with my car. On saturday I installed 3 pulleys, the water pump. alternator and an alluminum underdriven crank pulley. After We put the car back together I got a C.E.L. I allready reset the ECU. Rather than flashing it's now on all the time. I am figuring it's the spark plug/spark plug wires but i wanted to see if anyone here may have an idea of anything else it could be.

How did you "reset" the ECU?

Some of those wires look dangerously close to your belts, BTW

they said it was code P300 and P301 misfire in cylinder 1

I will have my friend down here check out the wires and move them out of the way.

and i turned the car to "on" and pumped the brakes rapidly til the oil gauge moved.

Your eccentric shaft profile sensor needs to be reset more than likely, and then clear those misfire codes.

how should i go about doing that, if you could please tell me.

Disconnect your battery and pull the "room" 15A fuse in the interior kick panel. Wait 5 minuets and then reconnect everything.

o.k. and that should get rid of the C.E.L? Is there anything else i'll need to do?
