I had a high idle problem for a little while, and my buddy helped me out and noticed someone had put a little section of vaccum hose over that little metal stopper for the throttle cable.
Now it idles fine, but throws a P0304 cylinder #4 misfire and idles kind of rough. any common solutions to this? I don't get how it was not showing misfire while idling high but it shows now...??
Check your plug and wire on the 4 cylinder. If that's fine put some injector cleaner in your tank, run it. Maybe a fuel injector problem. Reset your computer and see what happens.

when that happened to me, I replaced the plugs, and looked for any vacum leaks, that worked for me. Try that? Mine needed an entire tune up, because of the misfire.
It has new plugs, wires, IAC valve, valve cover gasket, throttle body gasket.
I'm gonna try a new coil-pack..
Also, what is the thing on the right front side of the valve cover? seems like a sensor that has oil pass through it? It looks like its leaking right there... is this my problem possibly?
Cool, and I guess oil does not pass through it lol. It just got leaked all over until I got the valve cover gasket changed.
So I took it off and cleaned it up as best I could but the male connector that plugs into it is also covered in oil... I'm not an expert but my cam sensor is not getting good readings because of this, correct?
I doubt my ECU is broken, its just kind of weird how it did not detect a misfire until I fixed the high idle.
I like to help, and like it more to find out what's wrong. It's possible that the oil was messing with it, but not real likely. Yeah it's possible that the owner before you put that vacuum hose on there because of the misfire. How high were you idling at?

Yeah that's no good. A shotgun slug is a good fix for just about anything though. I guess we'll see how it works when you get the Cam position sensor cleaned up.

if you have an air compressor, shoot some air in there and try and blow out all of the oil. If you don't take it to a shop and ask them to blow it out.
