Default Code: P0302 - It ran fine for a few K miles after...

The truck ran immaculate for a few thousand miles after changing the
Spark Plug and Wires
Brand New Coils
PCV 4x4 Mod
Throttle Body Heater Plates
Intake Gaskets
Valve Cover Gasket

then this morning, it just idle'd like crap and runs like crap as well.

I thought maybe my wires/plug got loose so I checked and it seems fine

Any ideas? I just gotta get it running ASAP, its the kids truck and she needs it for school.

I'm going to do some deep research here on the forum, seems like #2/8 is the issue with the misfire.

In the meantime I will let the truck cool down and check everything if it something got loose...

Check the plug wire, for rubbing. Run some fuel injector cleaner through it. Normally, l don't go to crazy over a misfire. Clear the code, check for obvious issues, add injector cleaner...and drive a complete tank of fuel.

If the issue still appears...then go further with diagnostics.

Found the issue... let the car cool down and check the wires, #4 was loose. Pop it back in, code went away. Driving and idling like a champ again.
