Default Had code p0302 ses..now its..

It was misfiring, not just random

well I changed that spark plug, yes i only did the one so far because i wanted to test out if it would fix it. So i changed it, and now it's just all messed up, first time i started it, it died on me really quick. 2nd time it toke a bit longer but same result. but then all the lights everything from vdc lights to the slip one.

I have videos of it i will find a way to get them posted on here tonight. I think next thing i would change would be the coil?
**and never mind on the videos..some how i didnt record it other then it setting at idle normal for a few seconds

Drive it for a block or two, search the forum for the trick to make the MIL flash the codes for you.

Don't buy anything until your sure its the problem. Switch the coil to another cylinder and see if the code jumps. You didn't search hard enough, it's real easy search 350z check engine pedal flash:

He's correct. Clear your check engine light, swap the coil in cylinder 2 with another. Wait for a code and your p0302 should change to p030(cylinder you swapped the coil with).
