Question edited for clarity and the typos - Nissian, cyclinder, vam, and PO 304 is P-zero not P-letter Oh..

What makes you think it is the Crankshaft Sensor? This is a simple misfire on Cylinder 4. Check plug, leads and coil. Run some Injector cleaner.
The P0304 code stands for "Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected", which means your vehicle's cylinder 4 has misfired enough times for your powertrain control module (PCM) to notice. A worn spark plug, a faulty fuel injector, and a leaking valve are some possible causes of the P0304 code. Jul 28, 2023
A code P0304 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:
Faulty spark plug or wire
Faulty coil (pack),
Faulty oxygen sensor(s),
Faulty fuel injector,
Burned exhaust valve,
Faulty catalytic converter(s),
Running out of fuel,
Poor compression,
Defective computer.
If there are symptoms
such as the engine is stumbling or hesitating, check all wiring and
connectors that lead to the cylinders (i.e. spark plugs/wires). Depending on
how long the ignition components have been in the car, 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 equipped). Otherwise, check the coil packs. Sometimes the catalytic converter has gone bad. If you smell rotten eggs
in the exhaust, your catalytic converter needs to be replaced. I've also heard
in other cases the problems were faulty fuel injectors.
I'd have fuel pressure checked, and at the very least, replace fuel filter. Not unusual to get multiple misfire codes due to low fuel pressure, thus starving cylinder(s), and causing the misfire code(s).
p0304 means the computer has detected that cylinder 4 is misfiring. the most common cause of a misfire is a faulty spark plug or plug wire. depending on how long its been since a tune-up, they could just be worn out. you can look at where the plug wire snaps onto ignition coil to see if the coil tower is corroded, also another cause. other causes of misfire in one cylinder could be a faulty fuel injector or low compression on that cylinder. but ignition is the most common
