p0300 is random cylinder misfire. p0304 would be cylinder 4.

yea, check your plugs. i myself run .038" gap on ngk bkr7e plugs without issues.

Could be the plugs, but it's weird that it's just the one cylinder like that. It happens when it's running, not just at idle, right?

Try swapping the coil packs around then the plugs and see if the code follows. If it doesn't follow it's likely the tune. I run 1 step colder plugs at .035 and I used to throw a P0300 if I idled for like 2 minutes. Retuned the car and haven't had a CEL in a while.

It's a 60# injector + idle thing.

It's a known issue with 60s. Contact OTTP and see if they can help you out.

What pulley are you running? If you're on a 2.8 or larger I'd say try regapping to .036-.037

Check the O-rings on the injector and the injector seat or w/e it's called. Make sure it isn't cracked or anything.

^^^^check your injectors/#4

swap it like you did the plugs/coil.

60s aren't the easiest to tune at idle.

I e-mailed them and he said to check the plugs(brand new just put them in), swap coil packs(did that), swap injectors (have yet to do that), or a compression test.. what will that test tell me, the car was running fine before I put the pcm in my car it only has 21000kms on it I think it is the tune but the shitty thing is that I dont know a local tuner so I am pulling my hair out on this one... I am also running the stage 3 pulley 2.99
If i have gapped my plugs at .35 is it possible to gap them larger now?
Thanks
