97 E320 OBD2 code P0304, P0450 & P01580
I am looking for some help! 1997 E320 that is misfiring # 4 cylinder. I have changed the Plugs, Wires & coil extensions; I have also checked the primary wiring from #4 coil pack back to the main wiring harness. Can anyone advise me on what to try next?

Moisture and Computers is not a good combo.
Late last night I think I found the problem. A mechanic friend of mine came over and I told him everything I have done so far. He had some type of meter I think he called it a fluke? At any rate, after about an hour he removed a cover in the right rear corner of the engine compartment where there are 3 or 4 different computers and that area had a lot of water in it. Tonight I will be working on drying that area and connectors out with canned air and WD-40. I will let you know how it goes. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

IT IS NOT NICE TO SHOUT, but it is nice to have found something! I would not use WD40 but remove and spray each connector with contact cleaner and dry out the rest of the electronics. Disconnect the battery before doing so and only hook it back up after make sure everything is dry and tidy...
