    You could have an open circuit in that fuel injector, or a bad fuel injector, or worst case, a defect in the PCM module. Further testing would be required to pinpoint which one. But code 204 would certainly account for a misfire, and also throw you off into replacing parts that weren't necessary it sees.

    so check the fuel injector first, right, is there any injector cleaner that might work

    I'd test for electrical impulse first using a simple NOID light. No pulse, no injection. Maybe you could look carefully at the wiring for that injector and spot some fray or broken wire or ???
