    I did do compression and all cylinders were over 100, and tested injectors for ohm. but how do you test voltage coming to injectors, whats the voltage supposed to be?

I'm assuming you have done a compression test and all cylinders have equal compression, right ?
If you think it is a fuel problem, you would check for power and a ground signal at each injector before replacing them.

    You should have battery voltage on one side of each injector, and a ground signal from the computer on the other side. Most mechanics use a low voltage test light or a noid light to test.

SOURCE: no injector pulse, no current to the injector

Check the pickup in the distributor as this is the cam sensor. The injectors run of the pulses created while the rotor is turning around. It should be a plastic disk located under the rotor button.

SOURCE: Check engine light comes on temporarily - engine chuggs at idle

Before changing you pcm try cleaning your egr valve. remove the valve and see if its stuck in the open position if so use a small pick to clean around the spring.

it has cap not coil pack , you try decarb might get lucky any ticking ? next is leak down on the cylinder and determine weather rings or valves how many miles wheat are the engine codes now check and the plug again , did it have misfire on the same cylinder before you worked on it adn after you worked on it. What is running compression. all these answers are to answered some you can do some will need more tools.

Po306 new intake gaskets smoke test compression test leak down test new plugs wires tested injectors swapped injectors checked ijjector wiring with noid still when you pull off no 6 wire it changes nothing...

Code 306 means cylinder 6 is not producing power. And as you know it takes fuel, spark, and compression at the right time to make power.
Generally, if the injector is firing at the right time the spark plug should be firing as well.
Are you sure the plug is firing ? And is it possible injector 6 has no fuel to spray ?

Can't get number 2 cyclinder to fire. See spark when I pull the wire off. Looks the same as number 3 but can't tell if its fuel injector issue or not enough spark?

Have you switched the spark plugs to see if it is a bad plug ?
Switching the plug in cyl 2 with another cyl will tell you if the plug is bad if the problem moves to the other cyl.
It takes alot more voltage to fire a plug in a compressed cyl than it does out in the open. If the plug is fuel soaked it will never fire.

Terraza P0303 Code. What's most likely cause? Injector, spark plug, wires or any of the above?

Without testing we would be just guessing . Hook up a spark tester to # 3 cylinder plug wire , is there spark ? Is the fuel injector for that cylinder squirting fuel , they make tools for checking this . Hook up a fuel pressure gauge an fire the injector , does fuel pressure drop. Could be a engine mechanical problem , compression test . Videos on youtube showing how to do these test's .

Started engine and was running rough Check engine lamp came on Used code reader and found code p0306 Remove plugs Compression test no.6 was 175 and the rest were 150 replaced spark plugs and retry Still...

You've done a great job of trouble shooting thus far. I would certainly suspect the injector after all of that. But, I didn't see anything about you replacing the spark plug itself. I would try that first as a crack in the insulator (even hairline) will cause mis-fires. If the spark plug doesn't fix the mis-fire, it cold be caused by a bad fuel injector, bad signal (like a loose harness or bad wire) to the fuel injector, or a leak or valve issue on that cylinder.

Code reader says it is miss firing on all cylinders and is not starting up

This could mean that you have a bad/fouled plug or plugs, bad plug wires, bad coil packs, a misbehaving fuel injector, or a scad of other things.

I'd try new plugs and wires first. It's the cheapest fix and maybe the most likely answer.

I wonder though. It seems that I've seen codes that tell you exactly which cylinders
are not firing correctly. Your code seems to indicate more than one cylinder. That still points
to the things I mentioned above, but also strengthens the coil pack theory, as they feed more than one plug.

Cylinder 1 and 2 misfire have changed plugs coils ignition module and whole fuel rail and injectors no help pulled upper and lower intakes see nothing realy wrong please help me my name is john hodson from...

Try switching those plug wires with ones that are firing, if the miss fire transfers to those two plugs, then it's the plug wires.
I say that cause you didn't mention anything about changing plug wires. You changed eveything else.
You also didn't mention what engine you have. If cylinders 1 and 2 are adjacent to each other, take a compression test on them, if it's lower than about 150 to 160 psi then the head gasket is blown between those two cylinders.

Check engine light on . will not pass DEQ code po 304

hoopers51, Code 304 is for a misfire detected on cylinder #4. Check the wire and the spark plug for that cylinder. Make sure that there is no corrosion in the boots of the wire and see if the spark plug is fouled up, or wet with gas. If the plug is fouled (a normal firing plug will have a grayish color to it) clean it and replace it. If the wire is bad then replace it. Make sure that there is no corrosion on the coil terminal when you pull the wire off. You might want to test the coil if you have an inline spark tester. These can be purchased very cheaply at any auto part store. Also what you can try is to remove the plug on the #4 injector when the engine is running. DO NOT try this with the spark plug wire. (Do this when the engine is off) When you disconnect the injector you will hear a misfire if it is working properly and this will tell you that the injector is not the problem. If there is no change then you should check for power to the injector. (once again, when the engine is running) The injector on that cylinder may be weak and is leaking. This will dump too much fuel into that cylinder causing the misfire and you will have a wet spark plug. All of these, a bad wire, a bad spark plug, a leaky injector or one with no power, or a bad coil will cause a misfire and will increase the HC's on an emission test. Good luck with this.
