Did a tune up new dist and button still skipping
Check for good spark on this cylinder, then check fuel injector for operation. check plug wire resistance with a meter it should be 7,000 ohms or less for every foot. the injector maybe plugged and not allowing the proper amount of fuel to enter the cylinder. check compression. pull all plugs out and check every cylinder with a gage. they should be within 10% between the highest and lowest compression.

well i had a 98 dodge neon that seems like it did the same and it said engine misfire and all i did was due a tune up change spark plugs and wires.

Check the spark plug wiring . There are several places where the wires cross each other. These wire cross points MUST be at right angles to each other. Or you will have a misfiring problem.
SOURCE: Check engine light says cylinder number 4 misfire
exactly, looking at the engine from front of car with hood open, it is the last cylinder on the right
Testimonial: "Thanks! It would be the one that is hardest to get to due to junk screwed right on top of it! "

I would check the injector. Pull the plug and check for corrosion. Use on ohm meter to check the injector. The resistance should be 11 to 15 ohms. Check it against another injector. they should be close. You can also check the injector plug. best to use is a noid light, but you can use the meter. set it to dc volts to check. the numbers should jump everytime it fires. since you got a 300 and 301 misfire it tells me that you have an intermitant misfire in cylinder 1. The other sensors are still good don't replace them. The coil is still good, because when it starts to go, it will have misfires on all cylinders or will not work at all. The crank sensor is the one that detects the misfire, again don't replace it because it's not bad, it's just doing it's job. If the injector and harness check out good then I would start check the cylinder for compression and mechanical problems
