Said to be cylinder misfire fault detected. Look into your spark plugs and spark plug wires and see if their would be any reason for a bad connection
P0301 JEEP - Cylinder Misfire Fault Detected...Possible causes: Faulty spark plug 1, Clogged or faulty fuel injector 1, Faulty ignition coil 1, Fuel injector 1 harness is open or shorted, Fuel injector 1 circuit poor electrical connection, Ignition coil 1 harness is open or shorted, Ignition coil 1 circuit poor electrical connection, Insufficient cylinder 1 compression, Incorrect fuel pressure, Intake air leak...The P0301 code means that the cylinder 1 is misfiring or is randomly misfiring. Start by checking for intake leaks and if no leaks are found the next step is to replace the spark plugs on cylinder 1. If the problem persists more tests needs to be done to diagnose problem.
Also do a compression test. I've read low compression can cause it. May have a bad valve spring.
