07 lexus is250 rough idle... occasionally... it has a stored code p301... #1 cyl misfire... but the light is not currently on. im in nd so i cant help her... but as an older bro... i would like to find her a solution. she does not have a lot of cash. she is in the airforce and has access to the hobby shop... but has no mechanical knolage.. but is willing to learn and help. anybody available in her area to lend her a hand? i would be grateful

Bad news man. There is a tsb out, car gets re-ringed, and a head job. Big job, not cheap.
Had 3 or 4 through the shop in the last year.

well, hopefully a simple tune up helps her out, if not... mot much i can do. she said it only happens sometimes, and only at idle... if someone could help her with a tune up and maybe a compression check... i would be grateful. what engine is in the is250? its not a jz is it?

Definitely not a JZ:

Hopefully it's an easier fix than was suggested there... buddy of mine has one I'm pretty sure.
