Do the seafoam treatment, HIGHLY recommended, follow the instructions from the tips on here to do it, then run it for a day, then go get an oil change, on your way home stop and get plugs and wires, make sure the plugs are gapped precisely...and you should have no more issues!

I got the random misfire code once when there was a tiny hole in one of my plug wires where it was too close to the header. I hit a puddle of water and the thing went crazy. Might want to check the wires.

same thing was happening to my truck...the longer i stayed at an idle the worse it got and more it bogged as i took off...it was a loose plug wire, i went ahead and replaced all the wires and it cured it.
