When I had my engine out at 8 years and 50,000 miles all the coil packs were cracked, some worse than others. You see sets on Ebay for under $300 all the time. Right now here are two sources for sets at $215.

With my luck all six of them would catch fire as I drive down the road because I used the wrong coating and they got too hot.

Just before his car blew up, Frank noticed the CEL lit up a little too late...
