Cold causes P0304 misfire on Cylinder 4?
My truck has started setting the P0304 code when the temperature drops, usually first thing in the morning. After engine and air temp warm up, no problems. I replaced the coil, what else could it be?
Sorry, 2012, 5.0 V8, 230,000, about 70k on plugs, coils are original, replacement was Motorcraft
I’m just got my truck back from exact same issue .
140km on new warranty engine due to same issue but cylinder 8 .
so same issue , turns out exhaust valves burned , rings worn and cylinder head was glossed up . Long story short on my 2012 5.0 , needs a lot of labour and parts if I want to attempt to fix . IMO common problem with these engines , not worth the 5-6 thousand fix .
