I would start with getting the right firing order you can look up the spec online at autzone on there site they always have diagrams than start by checking and making sure that your getting fuel either a clogged fuel filter or a bad fuel pump that is starting to go bad. Make sure you only have 1 fuel pump some cars have 2 if you have to chances are the one inside the gas tank is the one that 99% of time goes bad but check both for fuel coming out of them to be sure. To me it sounds like your ignition componenets need to be checked and make sure your confident on your firing order than start diagnosing .
If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.
I know for your car, the ps701 is useful.
If there are symptoms such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs). Depending on how long the ignition components have been in the car, it may be a good idea to replace them as part of your regular maintenance schedule. I would suggest spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor (if applicable). Otherwise, check the coils (a.k.a. coil packs). In some cases, the catalytic converter has gone bad. If you smell rotten eggs in the exhaust, your cat converter needs to be replaced. I've also heard in other cases the problems were faulty fuel injectors.
