P0300 and P0301 are misfire codes. 301 denotes cylinder P0300 is random misfire. Little more broad for causes.

What RPM do you idle at?

What brand and part number plugs did you use?

If only 301

Verify it is always 301.
Inspect TPS and IAC connections.
Check for vac leak at cyl #1 by spraying TB cleaner or WD 40 water... around plug, injector and intake to head while idling and listen for rpm change.
Inspect the boot is over the plug properly and not cracked or damaged. Might show as a burn mark on the plug ceramic.
Inspect plug is seated and torqued properly.
Inspect gap.

Inspect injector has all gaskets. And no additional are left in intake.

If all pan out ok swap injector 1 with 4 and plug 1 with 6. See if 301 becomes 304 or 306.

Post back what you find along the way.

I had a similar issue recently. On the 4.0 the number 1 plug wire makes a difficult transition within a couple inches of the plug. I had arcing from the wire to the adjacent bracket. I applied a couple wraps of silicone tape and problem solved. If you crank it up and look under the hood at night you might see it arcing.
