Did the technician tell you if it was a rich misfire or a lean misfire? That alone will give us a head start on where to start looking for a problem. It can be determined if the technician knows how to use his scan tool. With out this information, we've got to start from scratch.

What brand and part # spark plugs?
What brand and part # wires?
he didn't say, however the code that came up was p01301. i just picked up the truck and drove it home without much problems. he said to check the valve springs, and if its not that than it could be a bad driver in the computer system and could require it to be flashed or replaced entirely. he also pointed out that it only misses when idling cold or when under a load.

duralast ignition wires (4636)
ACDelco plugs (41-928)
