Hey guys. I know there are some other posts on this P0306 cylinder 6 misfire error code, but I wanted to bring it back up to see what the logical order would be to seek out the root cause...
The code popped up a while back, so I replaced the fuel filter. That didn't help. I replaced the air filter, plugs, plug wires and PCV valve - those didn't fix it either.
I've seen other suggestions such as...
1. check the coil pack
2. fuel injector
3. EEC
How do I diagnose the coil pack and the fuel injector? The EEC hasn't been flashed since it was built, so would it do me some good to get the PCM reflashed? According to motorcraft there have been 5 or 6 updates since the PCM was made. How much does something like this typically cost?
Thanks.
By the way...
