2003 Protege5 error codes
 

Hi all,
My sons college car limped home and I pulled 3 codes PO401 (EGR valve) PO301 (miss fire cylinder 1) and PO302 (miss fire cylinder 2. some history 138,000 miles car has run without major issues but I did replace both coils 5 months ago along with spark plugs NGK gapped at 31. Car idles a little ruff but jumps when you give it gas any suggestions on where to start. Kind of thinking injectors may be an issue I did add a can of seafoam about a month ago to a full tank of gas I dod that with all my cars 2-3 times a year and have for years. found it concerning to see miss fires on two cylinders each on a different coil pack.

I am a marine mechanic so I can get into just about anything on the cars.

Thanks for any help

Well, I'd start with the EGR code. Here's one link to like causes and solutions

Would the fault in the egr cause the miss fires in just 2 cylinders though? I already ordered a new ERG and have the old one and the tub out of the car. It had carbon in it but I have seen far worse the solenoid was dead it would not operate at all. My concern is that cleaning and replacing this is throwing time and money at a much bigger problem. I did check the plugs today look ok gap was good and I tried swapping the coils although cyl 1 and 3 are on one coil and the other coil has 2 and 4 wires all look fine even in the dark looked them all over really well. I am thinking tomorrow to do a compression test any info on what the range is on this engine?
