Re: P0300 code-cylinder misfire detected. What to try first?

Thats the one. On the 2nd. gens that have air conditioning, the low pressure hose & line is also right in front of it.

I dont know if they changed it around for the 3rd gens, but on a 2nd gen. LX, the left most manifold stud is -hard- to reach with the alternator in place. I find it impossible to get the nut on the stud and torqued down, unless the alt. is out. I have worked on 4 Escorts LX's, and two of them didnt have a nut on that left most stud, a 3rd one didnt have the bolt that is supposed to go from the engine accessory bracket into the head. Its also behind the alternator.
