Also put a new coil pack it
Check under the carpet on passenger side for the reset button on the fuel shutoff switch-only supposed to activate in a collision but sometimes it goes bad-think it's about a $40 part if you need a new one [which you usually don't]
Replace fuel filter could be plugged

The 2.3 engine is well known for plugged oil lines in the camshaft. You didn't say which cylinder isn't firing but if its number 3 or 4, you may well have a worn cam lobe. This will not show up on a compression test since the valve can't open due to the worn cam lobe. You will have to remove the valve cover and watch the valves move while turning the motor with a wrench on the harmonic damper/crank pulley bolt. Expect a repair bill in the $600 - $800 range. New cam and valve job.

these engines did have some exh valve issues, service bulletin 05-26-3. one other thing to verify is that the cam synronizer (CMP) is correctly installed. if its not right on, its way off.
