Default New from NH

Hello everyone, my name's Chris and I'm from New Hampshire. I drive a '96 Volvo 850 5-speed. I have had the car since April of 2010 and so far I love it. It's TMU (true mileage unknown), but the odometer stopped at 221,XXX miles. So if I were to take a guess, the car has roughly 250k-275k miles on it and it still runs strong. The body has a few small dings and blemishes due to old age, but there is not rust what-so-ever. The CEL is on due to an "unknown" ignition misfire (p0300, p0302, p0303, p0305), an EVAP leak (p0442), and an oxygen sensor circuit slow response; bank 1, sensor 1 (p0133). I say the ignition misfires are "unknown" because I have yet to find the problem. I have changed the plugs, wires, cap, and rotor, and I'm still getting codes for a misfire. The EVAP leak will be an easy fix, it's just getting the courage to work on the car in the cold and snow. Finally, the first o2 sensor was recently replaced and am unsure as to why this code is popping up.

I also drive a '97 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T, but it currently off the road due to some minor mechanical issues and major rust issues. I think I have come to conclusion that I will be parting it out once spring rolls around.

Anywho, that's all I have for now. It's nice to meet you all
