What is your question?
I drove my car up a hill oneday and noticed i was having dificulty, i mentiontioned this to a friend and he suggest i replace my spark plugs so we got new ones and he replaced them but then when i would start the car the check engine like came on and the codes po301 and po304 came up so he said i needed new coils so we got new coils and replaced them and now the code is just po304 and the check engine light is still comming on.. Since none of this was happening before, he replaced my spark plugs what would you think the issue is, i feel like the issue is something he did because there were no problems before that. Please tell me what you think.. Do you think the new coils or spark plugs could be faulty?

Hello, it's possible that a spark plug could be improperly gapped, or could also have inadvertently gotten cracked upon installation. I'd remove the spark plugs of any affected cylinders and inspect them closely for any signs of cracking and if good, check the gap. Make sure you only use original Hyundai plugs and coils for best performance. At times, certain aftermarket components have been found to be less than capable for certain applications; resulting in -- yes -- check engine lights and misfire codes after replacement. Whether or not any of these repairs will affect the performance issues you were having is unknown. It may be that you need a professional inspection of the engine performance by a shop near you. www.repairpal.com/repair-shops
