So far I have charged the three year old NAPA battery, got the hard top off, got access to the top of the engine, and have been successfully able to get it to idle - just really poorly. The PO said they had tried changing the plugs. As you can see from the attached video, it is really missing. Giving it any gas just stalls the engine. I tried disconnecting the MAF sensor, but it made no difference, and I don't know that it would without driving it. My first guess is bad plugs or coils. Or poorly installed.

Any opinions based on what you're seeing? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Tom

Scan it, if it is missing, there has to be codes.
