Worked on these for years. Get an ohm meter and check each coil. I would start there. If a resistance is different from the other two then that could be it. If you see rust that is a bad wire and coil too.
just fixed a car with a similar problem. check your crankshaft positioning sensor, then replace the plate that the coils sit on, it has went bad. the coils should be fine but that plate tells it when to fire.
P0300 is a random misfire code, if you are not mechanically inclined the first thing i would do if you havent done so in the past year or more, is change the plugs and wires, a random misfire code can be caused by worn plugs and/or wires not firing properly. let me know if that fixes it.
Since it is a 1996, you probably have high miles on it. Most cars after 100,000 miles or so are automatically set to have the check engine light come on.
