My escape has a rough idle and misses up to about 1500 rpms and then quits. I keep getting the code p0302; which is cyc no 2 miss fire but I have replaced the spark plugs, coil packs injectors pcv valve intake gasgets(upper and lower) the fuel filter; and all of the vac lines still have the miss and cel light any help would be appreciated.

Check the wiring harness connector at the ECU. If there are no pins broken, wiggle that harness and check for a change.

In particular check the green wire close to the connector. Pin 26 maybe. Remove the sheath and look.
