Could be a coil or injector as well. Is it a dead miss or just random? Do you have access to a scanner to see what cylinder # it is on? If not you can unplug injectors one-by-one to see which one it is.

You can set a random misfire code when 1 cylinder is a dead miss. That p0300 code doesn't mean it is really just random. It will make a big difference diagnosing your problem if you can figure out if it is 1 cylinder missing or all of them across the board.
