2001 Nissan Quest GLE 3.3L Misfire VIN: 4N2ZN17T51
The general consensus was timing belt. Tore it down and found a new belt but a leaking water pump and bad idlers. Reassembled with checked and double checked tooth count on the belt, still had p0300. Ended up being a broken o-ring on the number 1 injector. Trouble codes: P0300 (Random Multiple Misfire).
