Hello , thanks for your question in the autoaid Community.
Your described fault Code means: random misfiring
Possible faults for this Problem:
1. Fuel relay
2. Fuel pump (can be external leak) then you have the fuel smell
(can be internal leak) no smell but the fuelpressure goes away. Then it has a long cranking because of low pressure.
After a few times trying to start the engine starts but runs badly...
In this last case it could be the hose inside the pump house that is leaking. Just replace that hose and it could be alright.
3. Fuelpump fail in that case change fuelpump..
4. Faulty Sparks, Spark Plugs and Coil pack.
5. Leaky intake Ventile or exhaust Ventile.
