this was happening to me because all the rubber elbows that provided air pressure to the head covers rotted out and for some reason when it rained that relaxed them enough to lose enough air pressure to cause bad idle and a few codes. would also run a 10 sec 0-60 lol was a noticeable thing.

How long has it been since you have replaced the air filter and plugs.
