Cold start problems

My 97 C230 developed a problem where it won't run properly until it warms up.
It starts fine but when I put it in gear it bogs down and is not driveable. If I tap on the accelerater when its in park it seems to want to almost cut out. Once it warms up it drives and runs fine.

I pulled some codes with a scanner and I got the infamous P0170 along with P0300, P0301, P0304, P0303, and P0302. I believe they are all misfire codes.

I know from reading some of the threads the 0170 sometimes indicates the AMM. Anyone have any ideas how I could narrow this down some. Does this year car still have the wiring harness problem.

Thanks for any insight.
