[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 987014, member: 61136"] No reason to arbritrarly replace the coil. If you suspect there is some stumbling still. Most generaly the coil either works or not. You will get a code of missfire, eventualy. If there is a bad coil. If there is no code. Not the coil. One thing I have seen in theses types of coil packs is. Check where each wire plugs in. OEM coils have aluminum contacts. There could be some corosion in there from age. A dremel tool with a small brush will clean the contacts. Also unplug the coil when doing this. Also unpluging and repluging the coil from the harness can help wipe the pins. I have found thru the years. Despite the plugs on ecu control engines are water tight. I have solved some problems. By unpluging and repluging sensors and components. On most sensors and components. It is very low voltage signals (5vdc). A small amount of corrosion. Can cause a change in current or voltage. Due to the resistance caused by the corosion. After making these checks. If you are still stumbling. Look for small vacuum leaks or a fuel issue. [/QUOTE]
