The generic coil packs are $30.Beru is double- unless you buy at Pelican.
2.Check the spark plug tubes for brittleness (& oil leakage :-)) $6 ea at Pelican
Good idea. One of the coils did look cracked. I haven't had any misfire codes in the past so i'll seal it up when its clean and worry about it later. They are much easier to get to than I imagined.
