RICH FUEL MIXTURE CAN BE CAUSED BY FAULTY FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR.RESTRICTED FUEL RETURN LINE.LEAKING FUEL INJECTORS CAUSED BY CARBON BUILT UP INSIDE PINTLE TIP OF THE FUEL INJECTOR.CLEAN FUEL INJECTORS ADD CAN OF SEAFOAM TO 3/4 TO FULL TANK OF GAS.WEAK SPARK FROM IGNITION COIL WILL CAUSE SPARK PLUGS TO MISFIRE FOUL OUT.

Could be a number of issues. Fuel pressure or regulator issue, but...
If you have a coolant sensor problem, as in reading wrong, and it tells your computer it is colder than it actually is,,,you will get more fuel delivery.

I swap my engine on my 03 ranger 3.0 flex fuel,with one from a 02 ranger gas fuel. It was running rough until I put my old fuel rail and injectors.But I still have a miss on cylinder #3 already install new...

Check compression in number three. You could have bought a bad engine. And yes. You need to change every sensor. If they don't match with the plugs. replace the engine. There is a reason for different engine codes. You should have stuck with them.

CODES P0300, P1128

po300 is random miss fire doubtful two O2 sensors bad at one time most likely coolant temp sensor is bad causing engine to run rich this will cause O2 sensors to throw a code(thats what they are there for..exhaust gas temp. and raw fuel) running rich will also fowl spark plugs(=miss fire) P1128 ??

02 4Runner 3.0 showing service code 300. Replaced

Replace all your plugs, po300 code is random misfire which could absolutely be caused by bad gas causing detonation. Try an octane booster and gas stabilizer when parked for long periods.

My 1996 Gmc K2500 with a 7.4l is miss firing. runs good till it warms up, then the problem starts. I have no codes in the computer. new fuel filter, spark plugs, air filter

Very good chance that it's bad fuel injectors and/or fuel pressure regulator. Very common with the 96-2000 L29 motor (Vortec 7.4L)
Replace with better injectors, the OEM ones are NOT WORTH cleaning. Go to http://www.fullsizechevy.com/forums/general-discussion/technical-maintenance/213662-96-99-454-vortec-owners.html

96 dodge caravan 3.0 has p300 and p306 codes,

A P0306 code means that the the ECM has detected that one of the engine's cylinders is not firing properly. In this case it's cylinder #6.

A code P0306 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

Faulty spark plug or wire, Faulty coil (pack), Faulty fuel injector, Burned exhaust Valve, Poor compression, and Defective computer. 

Check all wiring and connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs). Depending on how long the ignition components have been in the Caravan, it may be a good idea to replace them as part of your regular maintenance schedule. I would suggest spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, and rotor (if applicable). Otherwise, check the coils (a.k.a. coil packs). The number six cylinder is the one towards the radiator and drivers side. If you are going to change all the plugs and wire keep me posted, be glad to help. Good luck and hope this helps, P0300 just means multi miss fire.

HI
P0300 is multiple misfires.
P0171 is lean burn on left bank 1 means drivers side
02 sensor is faulty. Your vehicle is over fuelling that is why your are getting P0300 code and the rotten egg smell. Good idea is to replace both 02 sensors.
