Default P0304

2009 FX4 5.4L 180000km
Any help or advice would be great.
Check engine light is on. P0304 is the code that is showing up. Should I be looking at cylinder 4 for the problem or the 4th cylinder that fires for the problem?
If its the firing cylinder I should be checking 2nd cylinder correct?
Thanks in advance

It would be cylinder number 4, not the 4th in the firing order. I believe that means its the passenger side rear cylinder if you have a V8 or driver side front cylinder if you have a V6,

I've just dealt with that code. I have a 2013 F150 5.0. Code showed up because I had a plugged up converter. But, if I were you, I'd start with changing out the plugs and coils first. Or spend a couple of bucks and have a trained mechanic properly diagnose the code.

when was the last tune-up ? Need some fresh plugs and should replace the boots and springs while your at it. Use motorcraft SP509’s.

Thanks all for the help
Changed coil and plug seems to have solved the issue
