Re: 99 Cat hesitates on accel.; idles rough

I will be picking up the coil packs today; will see if that fixes the acceleration issue.

I read somewhere on here that someone had one the these codes after leaving their key in the "on" position for a couple of minutes. I guess the system sees the ignition on, but the throttle body closed, so it throws a code.
Come to think of it, last time I took the car to the car wash, they had left the key in the "on" position while they were cleaning the inside, apparently listening to the radio or something. If I remember correctly, the CEL came on shortly after that. Probably unrelated to the misfire problem. Going to disconnect the battery, maybe that will clear the other two codes (If only I could be so lucky).
