I'll assume you've verified that the wires are all on and snapped securely on the plugs. Did you disconnect any of the plug or coil wires from the harnesses? Any wires arcing?

This is usually caused by a loose connection, loose wire, or in the case that there are multiple misfires, perhaps some wires are crossed.

Did you damage any of the boots while pulling the wires?

Yep, go back and check all your plug wire connections. Make sure you feel that "pop" as they go on. P0300 is random misfire code.

Are you sure you're running the proper heat range?
