ase mechanic here. this has happened to me too, try checking your wiring again, it is very easy to mix up the back three cylinders. and on the coil remember number six is the middle coil. from left to right its 523614

There may be a ground wire that you forgot to put back or a power wire that give power to the coils. Re-check all electrical wiring and make sure they are all connected. Good luck and thanks for using FIX YA

SOURCE: po300 code possible fixes?

HI there:

Basically this means that the the car's computer has detected that not all of the engine's cylinders are firing properly.


A P0300 diagnostic code indicates a random or multiple misfire. If the last digit is a number other than zero, it corresponds to the cylinder number that is misfiring. A P0302 code, for example, would tell you cylinder number two is misfiring. Unfortunately, a P0300 doesn't tell you specifically which cylinder(s) is/are mis-firing, nor why.


Symptoms may include:

the engine may be harder to start
the engine may stumble / stumble, and/or hesitate
other symptoms may also be present

A code P0300 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Faulty spark plugs or wires
Faulty coil (pack)
Faulty oxygen sensor(s)
Faulty fuel injector(s)
Burned exhaust valve
Faulty catalytic converter(s)
Stuck/blocked EGR valve / passages
Faulty camshaft position sensor
Defective computer


Possible Solutions: If there are no symptoms, the simplest thing to do is to reset the code and see if it comes back.


If there are symptoms such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, check all wiring and connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs). Depending on how long the ignition components have been in the car, it may be a good idea to replace them as part of your regular maintenance schedule. I would suggest spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor (if applicable). Otherwise, check the coils (a.k.a. coil packs). In some cases, the catalytic converter has gone bad. If you smell rotten eggs in the exhaust, your cat converter needs to be replaced. I've also heard in other cases the problems were faulty fuel injectors.


Random misfires that jump around from one cylinder to another (read: P030x codes) also will set a P0300 code. The underlying cause is often a lean fuel condition, which may be due to a vacuum leak in the intake manifold or unmetered air getting past the airflow sensor, or an EGR valve that is stuck open.


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

Testimonial: "thank you for your suggestions.codes were cleared,so far po140 has not returned (bank one,sensor two).code po300 returned in less than five minutes.will check vacuum,hoses,and egr next."

Cylinders 1 and 3 misfiring on 2.4 Liter 97 chevy malibu

code p 0300 is random/ multiple cylinders ----misfires detected ===causes ---spark plugs ---HT lead/s---injector/s---ignition coil/s---low compression---wiring
he has changed a lot for nothing
a 5 year old engine can have a lot wrong with it --so new out of a crate is no guarantee
most misfires are from injector problems
it could be a loose valve seat insert so have a compression test done if moving the injectors to new locations doesn't move the misfire

I have a 2002 GMC Sierra 1500. 4.3 liter engine. I brought it to autozone and they put the gauge on it and got two codes P0140 and P0300. I had my distributor cap replaced, ignition rotor, plugs ,wires,...

Clean mass air flow sensor with a nonchlronated brake cleaner,install new air filter and check all vacuum lines for leaks then check for vacuum leak around or at intake manifold.Code P0140 is for mass air flow sensor code P0300 is a multiple misfire which more than likely is a vacuum leak possibly intake manifold gaskets leaking.

Where is the coil located

This car has a coil pack. All six spark plug wires connect into it. It is located behind the air intake maifold. To get to it: (what I did)
1 Disconnect wires and hoses around the air intake area. Start at the air filter and go along to the air manifold. Loosen clamps at filter.
2. Loosen the clamp and remove the air intake hose. It justs comes loose. I left it in.
3. Disconnect the air valve (has butterfly valve). I forget the proper term. Just move aside.
4. Finish disconnecting hoses, i.e. pvc, EGR vacuum.
5. Remove the two nuts that hold the EGR valve to the pipe. Leave EGR attached to air manifold.
6. Remove the eight bolts that hold the air manifold.
7. Final check for anything still attached. Remove if needed.
8. Remove air manifold. You are exposing the air ways into your engine. Cover or stuff w/ paper towels to prevent getting contamination.
9. Now you have access to the coil pack. Three bolts.

If you have not replaced the plugs or wires, NOW is the GOLDEN time. WHILE YOUR in there.
Whether new wires or old, watch the transfer to keep in proper sequence.
Reverse order to put back. Use a bolt tightening pattern that pulls the manifold down evenly.
You may need a new gasket on the EGR connection.
Good Luck.

My 96 altima has a rough idle problem.

Sounds like you could have a vacuum leak in the intake manifold due to a faulty gasket, spray the gasket down with parts cleaner, csee if the idle smoothes out if it does you have a bad manifold gasket.
