    Had codes read at the dealer. No codes besides a cylinder 4 misfire. Which also threw an p0138. Everything else was fine. Stuck valve?

    It ran fine for a couple hours before it started acting up. That's what I don't get. Drove it 100 miles yesterday to see if I'd come out of it and it didn't.

    swap the coil on cylinder #4 to another cylinder, see if the misfire goes with the coil. Since your spark plugs are new, I would hope they are good
