    Got a 4Runner a few months ago, has codes P300, 302,304 and 306. Done a complete tune up (plugs, wires, PCV Valve, air filter answer fuel filter. Didn't clear up at all. Took to a shop and found out #2 cylinder was dead but the other 5 were good. Did a valve Jody and timing belt while in there. After getting it back still has a misfire on the 2,4,&6. Coils checked out fine and injectors were fine. What else could I be missing?

    Well...I hope not but just had that head off due to #2 having no compression. Like I said valve done and timing belt done. Compression is good and now chocolate milk.

    Is there ANY weird noise that could be a knock? I've got an '04 sitting in my driveway with a bent rod. It's not even really knocking at this point, and sounds more like lifter noise, but it's running extremely rich and has a blown HG.

    Got it back from the shop...it was a simple fix for me, when he put on the new timing belt he was off 2 teeth. Seems like I dodged a bullet.

    Thanks everyone for their input.

    A few things here and there. Still dreaming up stuff
    Beat me too it. I'm guessing he was off on the bottom and nit the top side. It's not hard to do if you don't know what your doing and rush it.
