sounds like either your battery is not good or your alternator is weak.

Someone must have done a transmission swap in the past. Have an auto parts store cross match the numbers you find on the transmission....see what it came from.

That sounds like your coil pack. The coil to number 1 & 4 may be bad. The other coil, to number 2 & 3 cylinder is good and working. If it's not the coil, you may have to check the wiring to the coil pack-something is amiss. You could swap the coils around and see if the misfire follows your switch to 2 and 3... If the above don't get no good results, it's not an ignition problem, then you will need to check compression on number one cylinder. Look for any mechanical problem from low compression. 3 major causes of misfires: gas, spark, or compression.

Charging system issue..weak battery or alt most likely

Yes by disconneting the map sensor will drop idle and make run rough, the problem is the idle air control valve or a vacuum leak, try to clean the throtlebody with an old tooth brush and some throtlebody spray cleaner if that doesnt help then try having the iac valve checked the iac valve (Idle air control valve ) if with the engine running listen for a hissing noise that will be a vacuum leak, these are the most common reasons for higher than normal idle. hope this is helpful.

There is actuly 3 of them one on each front wheel that sence the speed that the wheels are turning . And one on the transmission tail stock that sences the speed the transmission is turning . The vehicle control module compares information and corrects brake and engine functions as well as shift functions . The most likely ones are the front wheel ones that are giveing you problems because they get water and road salt witch tends to corroad the the connecters to them . That would be ware to start looking for problems . Keep im mind that all of these sensors generate voltage there little generators that create what is called a refferance voltage of about .5 volts DC and be tested by spinning the wheels and haveing a volt meter hooked to the output wires from the connectors

you probably have damaged the gas line a special line that links the pedal to the engine and you have damaged a spark plug and battery line in the car.
