Multiple Cylinder Misfire. 2.8 Help.
On my way home from a trip yesterday and out of nowhere I notice the car feels just slightly rough, I look down and notice the CEL is flashing but it never beeped. I was unable to pull over due to heavy traffic, so I just kept going for about a mile or so And the car returned to normal and the CEL went to staying solid. Drove the rest of the way home which was about another 100-150 miles and everything was fine the whole way.
So I scanned the codes today and here's what came up. Random misfire on cylinder 1 & 6. Cleared the codes and went for a drive with both light driving and hard driving up to 100 MPH and everything was fine CEL never came back. What could it have been? Car is a 2.8 BTW. Also I do have leaky valve cover gaskets which will be fixed this week or next if that could have anything to do with it.
CODES:
Address 01: Engine
Controller: 4D0 907 551 AH
Component: 2.8L V6/5V MOTR AT D01
Coding: 06251

I just bought a 2.8 and had some misfires on the way home. I popped the hood and noticed the hose from the secondary air pump had come off and was a PITA to put back on. Once it was reconnected the CEL never came back and the car runs much better.
