    Help!. I changed my spark plugs and ignition coil pack! My car is even worse!

    Now it smells really strong of gasoline. Its running rough. Idling up and down. When i come to a stop or slow down it either shuts off or almost shuts off. But has no problem starting back up. Im sure there is an oil leak because i can see the debris building up. But that was there before i changed the spark plugs. Now my check engine light is on and the code it reads is p0300 multiple cylinder misfire. Not sure what i should do from here

    No disrespect intended, but if that happened to me I'd double check everything. Plugs in all the way. Coil packs on tight. Wires connected right -- not accidentally swapped. Nothing else accidentally disconnected, like a vacuum hose.
