Sounds like a bad fuel injector. Shop would need to run a contribution test to confirm. I must say, good detective work, good luck.

2006 ford five hundred - engine code P0301. When first starts, no issues, but then idle gets rough and car loses power. Miles from home with no tools but willing to do whatever.

P0301 cylinder # 1 misfire !
P030x - Cylinder x Misfire Detected Description: NOTE: x represents cylinder number 1 through 9.
The misfire detection monitor is designed to monitor engine misfire and identify the specific cylinder in which the misfire has occurred. Misfire is defined as lack of combustion in a cylinder due to absence of spark, poor fuel metering, poor compression, or any other cause. Possible Causes:
  • Ignition system
  • Fuel injectors
  • Running out of fuel
  • EVAP canister purge valve
  • Fuel pressure
  • Evaporative emission system
  • EGR system
  • Base engine
Diagnostic Aids: The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) blinks once per second when a misfire severe enough to cause catalyst damage is detected. If the MIL is on steady state due to a misfire, this indicates the threshold for emissions was exceeded and caused the vehicle to fail an inspection and maintenance tailpipe test. Application Key On Engine Off Key On Engine Running Continuous Memory All - - GO to Pinpoint Test HD . Could be an ignition coil !An to replace it the intake manifold has to come off !

Intake or vacum leak will be the first codes 174,171, try idle and spray propane around intake if car idles up, then intake is leaking, otherwise could be a broken vacum line, check with a gauge
