Default Possible misfire or the car just hates running cold

Ok this just happened to me today, and it only happened twice. I start the car up and it sounds fine runs fine, but then, only in second gear also, right at about 1900 to 2000 rpms it feels like it misses, only momentarily. And its more of a lurch but not the sound of the misfire then, I wasnt sure about it, I know I'm gettin new plug wires tommorow just because the ones on my car are either or original or number 2, either way they look like ***. The SES light is indeed lit, and I will get that scanned tommorow also. Just curious if that could be cold or actually misfire, and sorry for not being more clear, this happend at roughly 110-120 degrees on the dash guage, oil pressure Id put at about 61-63psi, and the voltmeter or w/e was slightly passed the 3/4 mark. I know it seems like alot of info but when anything out of the ordinary happens while I'm driving I make note of it and actually have a small notebook to write things down in so I know the progression of the problem or if it was just a fluke....

probably has a misfire, caused by some bad plugs. or spark not getting to plugs because of those wires youre getting replaced. you're on the right track.. good luck

I dunno, its wierd, because it hasnt done it since that one day, although I needed spark plug wires for a visual aid in my speech class so I bought some for my car. I'll put em on this weekend, and I'm gonna get the oil changed tomorrow too, it needs it and I figure when it gets a little warm do as much as ya can.
