Just swapped in the motor and at idle it misfires on cylinder 4. It's getting spark and fuel. The weird part is though that nearly anything above 25% throttle and it runs fine without any miss. I'm wondering maybe if it's a faulty coil pack harness or injector harness that doesn't have a good connection at idle but works fine under some kinda load.

Just wanting to get some .02 here. Spit balling ideas here.

Check compression , most likely a bent valve in that cylinder , had the same problem with my 4runner . Would only mis during idle

Or a bad injector. Or a bad coil pack. Or a bad spark plug. Or bad piston rings. There are lots of potential culprits, need to go through one by one and eliminate as many of them as possible.
