HELP: PO302 code and Honda can't find the problem
So i'm pretty new here guys. I started a thread to introduce my self about a week ago. I bought my 02 S2000 last thursay with 54,000 miles from my local Honda dealership. It had a low idle and mis fire code for cyclinder #2. The next day I brough it to the dealership for the misfire which you can feel at idle with the CEL also showing. To make a small story short it's been 6 days and they've replaced:
1) All 4 coils
2) New plugs
3) Valve adjustment
4) Compression test (passed fine)
5) Leak down test (passed fine)
6) New fuel rail
7) Injectors (to be done today)
From talking to them they said they've never seen a misfire that they can't get to go away. Is there any other paths or advice that maybe I could give them that they might not know? It seems like they're just pulling parts from the car and guessing what's wrong. The mis fre is only at idle, once you're rolling the car runs like a champ. Thanks for your help.....

Timing issue? fuel pump? Other fuel issue? Bad gas?
Little addition, have them check the valves. Specifically look for things like cracked valve retainers etc. While its probably not the problem, its always worth looking at in a used s2000 as its something that happens if someone makes really really bad miss shift.

Just out of curiosity, did you buy the car like that?

I hope you dont have to pay for any of above since they didn't fix the problem.
