Answer
Hi Arialle:

well the misfire can be something as simple spark plug wire that is arching or a bad ignition coil that has a bad connection between a wire and the coil it's self.. It could be a dirty fuel injector. If you have a dirty injector you can try an product called Chevron Techron injector cleaner you add it to the gas tank.. As far and the idle issue it can be a dirty throttle plate and or idle control motor on the throttle body. It could be a vacuum leak as well. With out seeing this it's hard to give you an exact reason for the 2 issue you have. when was the last time this car had a tune up plugs,fuel filter etc?? Has the service engine soon lamp come on? Good luck :)
