Update -

Here is what I found.....

I went to take off the coil on cylinder 5. The first thing I noticed was that when I pulled it out, the connector from the coil to the wire started to come off on one side. I disconnected it completely, and noticed that there is a tiny clip on each side of the plug that fastens in the connector. The clip on the side that was coming off was broken. I reassembled everything, made sure the connector was on, and started it up. (After clearing code). I got it all the way up to temp without a CEL or even a pending code. That is a relief!

But now my question is...Do I need to replace the whole coil because of the broken clip. My gut says yes, but thought I would check.
