Default Need help.

I need some help with getting my car up and running again. If anyone is willing to Come to my house and help that would be awesome. I don't trust any mechanics in my area and the nearest Nissan dealer is 1 1/2 hours away from where I live. I'll pay for your gas and pay you for helping. But you must know what you're doing. Lol

Well it's my 3rd cylinder that has been misfiring and I've changed plugs, coils, injectors. So idk. I've checked for vaccum leaks and I can't seem to find one.

How did you check for vacuum leaks? I prefer brake cleaner. If there are no leaks and you are sure all electrical connections are good then you really need to check compression, I don't have one at the moment but they're pretty cheap. If you have to drive the car pull the injector wire for cyl 3. I had an emergency 3 cyl 180sx for a few days once.

Yeah the is a cel. I keep getting a p0300 code. But before that I got a p0303 code. I've checked as much as I could and I can't find anything. Compression is the only thing but I don't have the tool to do it.

see if someone can do a compression/leakdown test as you may have crappy compression in that cyl...

You can also use a noid light to see if the injector harness if firing properly as well

P0300

Possible cause:

* Improper spark plug
* Insufficient compression
* Incorrect fuel pressure
* The injector circuit is open or shorted
* Fuel injectors may be faulty
* Intake air leak
* The ignition signal circuit is open or shorted
* Lack of fuel
* Drive plate or flywheel
* Front heated oxygen sensor may be faulty

Well ie changed most of those parts. But the thing is that it's only my passenger side misfiring. So idk if that helps narrow it down.

Time to face a failure at fixing it and take it to a mechanic. Tried as much as I could.
