First guess is that you did not get all of the wires place in the correct order when you reconnected them.
Second guess is that the 12 volt wire going to one of the coils is not making contact...check for good connections at all of the coils...
last....and I hope not this one, one of your new coils is bad. Try substitution of coils, one at a time to see if that restore power....

P0302 mis fire, lacks power

Pull the spark plug of cylinder 2. Put the coil on the spark plug. Ground the sparkplug and have someone crank the engine. See if you see a spark. If you have no spark switch coils with another cylinder. If still no spark it could be one of the wires going to the ignition coil. If there is a spark do you smell gas at the spark plug hole? Could be no fuel to the cylinder.

My ninja is losing power when i get into it. Idles great on all 4 but when i get going it loses power and seems to be just running on 3 cylinders. I have change spark plugs and wires and that didnt help....

Test the Coils . The coil produce the high voltage for wire plugs+spark plug+motor. If the coil is defective you ignition system can be wrong. see the diagram attached.

There is a long list of possible causes. The most common:

- low auto trans fluid level
- one or more coils failed
- one or more spark plug leads loose or broken
- one or more spark plugs fouled or worn

Car running sluggish and rough. multiple misfire. excessive fuel consumption... already replaced sparkplugs, fuel filter and valve cover gaskets. as well as spark plug wires.. what could be the issue..?

Hi there, sounds like this car might have either a bad coil pack or the distributor cap has gone bad. 3 most important things are air, fuel and 12v power. Seems your getting all three but one of them is giving you trouble. Sounds like spark. Try a new distributor cap or a new set of coils and see if that solves the problem.

if it isnt the spark it has to be fuel or air which would lead to lack of fuel pressure which can cause sluggish behavior or the air sensor in the intake if there is any is not working properly and the computer is running on a safety fuel map that is a base map used by manufacturers which burns alot of fuel but stops the engine from destroying it self. Check the coils o the sensors.
