you might be throwing a new code, get it rescanned to be sure!

If you are not throwing a new code, check the Ford DTC and recalls for your car, because a computer programming code error by ford has been known to trigger the P0300-P0308 codes for misfires on their vehicles under false pretenses. If it is the same code and you have replaced spark plug/wire and you have no pressure loss of cylinder leak, it could just be that the computer has a messed up tune. It could aslo be as serious as a head gasket leak if your block is leaking and running weak.
