P0306 is a random misfire code for #6 cylinder. The code could be anything from a bad plug to a burnt valve. First thing I would do is pull the plug and plug wire. This would be a good time to check the compression. If the compression and plug and wire check out ok swap the plug and wire with a different cylinder to see if the problem moves on the engine. If the misfire moves it will come up with another code. Example if you move parts from 6 to 5 and the code comes back it be P0305. Then at that point change plugs and wires. If the problem stays at 6 then check injectors. You can do the same with the injectors as the plugs and wires. If that checks out then then you could have an internal problem bad rings bad piston cracked head burnt valve. Also check the coil pack. Unlikely that it's bad but you never know
