Hey all, I'm new here and hoping to get some advice.
This past weekend I was driving at COTA and my CEL came on during the back straight between turns 11 and 12 (3rd and 4th gear, high load and RPM). After pitting in, I scanned the car and the only code present was P0300. I hadn't noticed any noticeable signs of misfire (power loss, shudder, etc) so I decided to clear the code and let the car cool off. After a few hours, I went back out and after a few laps I saw the CEL flickering. At this point, I reduced the throttle and started short shifting at 4 to 5k RPM. The light turned off and I was able to drive several more laps before calling it quits (the low fuel light came on around this time). I even drove the 60ish miles home without incident.
Currently, the light is off and the car has no noticeable drivability issues.
I'm wondering what y'all think of this. To me, the lack of a specific cylinder fault code leads me to believe it's not related to ignition. Maybe fuel or air delivery?
Car is a 2018 Mustang GT with PP1, bone stock minus an aftermarket catback.
