lol alex and ben you guys are awsome! I was told like 2 years ago that one of my coils are bad, and i would have to replace it. I got a couple at the junk yard just incase it goes, how would i find out which one is going to go soon if it has not gone yet? I dont think there is any problem yet. Altho when i changed my spark plugs i had one that was broken right in half maybe its that coil idk..
