Its been to the mechanic he charged me 400 for a air-fuel sensor and sent me on my way, 5 hours later i took that video. car was fine today brought it back to the mechanic and he had no idea what to do so he just reset the light. the code was p1381 which is a cylinder sensor located in the distributor however the last time this happened to my car i was told it had two codes which were engine misfire and tranny slip. on top of that Im now getting 11 miles to the gallon from 27

P1381 = CYP sensor intermittent

Look for loose/dirty/corroded connections at the wiring harness plugs of the distributor.
