This only occurs when I restart the Jeep within an hour of shutting it off. If I wait at least an hour it runs fine. If I start 15 minutes or so after shutting it off I'll get the p0206 and p0306 codes an it misfires. Then I clear codes wait an hour and it runs with no issues. So when I take the jeep anywhere I have to make sure I'm going to be there a while. I changed the plus in the summer and also swapped coil plug on #6 but when it happens is always on #6. Any ideas?

DTC P0206 Injector 6 Control Circuit
Refer to Fuel Injectors (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=219356)
Circuit Description (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss1-207252#ss1-207252)
The PCM controls the fuel injectors by using an ignition feed driver and ground circuit within the PCM. The driver has the ability to detect an electrical malfunction in the ignition feed or ground circuit. If an electrical malfunction occurs in the fuel injector circuit for engine cylinder #6, the ignition feed driver signals the PCM to set DTC P0206.
Conditions for Running the DTC (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss2-207252#ss2-207252)
The engine is running.
Conditions for Setting the DTC (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss3-207252#ss3-207252)
The PCM detects an electrical malfunction on the injector circuit for engine cylinder #6 for longer than 30 seconds.
The condition is present for at least 30 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss4-207252#ss4-207252)
The PCM will illuminate the MIL during the second consecutive trip in which the diagnostic test has been run and failed.
If the electrical malfunction could lead to possible catalyst damage, the PCM will immediately flash the MIL while the fault remains at catalyst damage levels.
The PCM will disable TCC operation.
The PCM will store conditions which were present when the DTC set as Freeze Frame and Fail Records data.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss5-207252#ss5-207252)
The PCM will turn the MIL OFF during the third consecutive trip in which the diagnostic has been run and passed.
The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
The DTC can be cleared by using the scan tool Clear Info function or by disconnecting the PCM battery feed.
Diagnostic Aids (http://127.0.0.1:9001/servlets/BlobShtml?ShtmlFile=207252&lang=en&country=US&dbCd=en&evc=sm&version=html&pubid=55&appYear=1998&appMake=Chevrolet%2FGeo&appModel=Camaro#ss6-207252#ss6-207252)
The misfire history counter may be useful in determining which injector circuit is malfunctioning. If DTC P0300 was set, look at the Misfire Hist # display for each cylinder. The largest value stored in the misfire history counters will indicate the location of the malfunctioning injector circuit or injector.
Check for the following conditions:
Poor connection at the PCM or fuel injector. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor terminal to wore connection.
Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for damage.
Reviewing the Fail Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often the condition that caused the DTC to be set occurs. This may assist in diagnosing the condition.

The largest value stored in the misfire history counters will indicate the location of the malfunctioning injector circuit or injector.
Check for the following conditions:
Poor connection at the PCM or fuel injector. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals, improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor terminal to wore connection.
