Lots of Codes!

I have had a misfire code on cylinder 5 (P0305) for the last month or two. I changed all the spark plugs, replaced the coil on cylinder 5 and the code still came back. So I switched around the coils and spark plugs to make sure I didn't receive a bad one and still received the same code. So with some research on help on here, I believe the fuel injector needs to be replaced on cylinder 5. I ordered one and it just came in yesterday (still haven't replaced). I was driving the car today and the check engine light was blinking today when I started the car and could tell it had a bad misfire and was very sluggish. I scanned it for codes and received (P300 misfire, P0301 cylinder 1 misfire, P0305 CYLINDER 5 misfire, and P0410 secondary air injection pump). When I got home, I popped the hood to look at the secondary air pump hose to make sure if was fully connected and it was. I switched cylinder 1 and 2 coil and spark plugs and it still has a bad misfire. What is going on?

Check your fuel rail pressure before you change all other parts. It is unlikely you have coil, spark plug or injector problem on multiple cylinders at the same time. What is common for all of them is the fuel pressure.

I hooked up a pressure gauge and started the car. It read 58lbs.

I dont let the fuel get below 1/2 tank. But those codes have been on even with different multiple fill ups.
