I went to the mechanic and instead of just getting the spark plugs and spark plug wires replaced, I didn’t want to go through the hassle so I had him replace the spark plugs, spark plug wires, and coils. As of right now the car is running smoothly and there are no more misfires. Thanks guys for all the help, appreciate it!!

Sir I’m sorry If I have offended you but I never was trying to attack your profession and I understand insurance, tools, and other types of bills that the mechanic may have to pay and I’m certainly not saying that ALL MECHANICS ARE NOT TRUSTWORTHY BUT IN MY EXPERIENCE THE ONES I HAVE MET ARE NOT THE RIGHT ONES.

Thanks, but if I put in a speaker with more ohms can it damage my stereo? Or will it blow a fuse in the fusebox?

I went under the hood and removed the plastic cover that was covering the coils and spark plugs and wires. I started to unplug a coil at a time and start the engine to see if it makes any difference. The first three coils in the front of the engine seem to be working fine because when I unplug them I see a difference in engine noise and performance. (THIS IS WHAT I THOUGHT, IF ONE OF THE COILS ISN’T WORKING THAN UNPLUGGING THAT COIL WOULDN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN ENGINE NOISE. THIS IS HOW I RULE OUT WHICH ONE IT COULD BE). The coils are in the back I cannot reach because they are under a plenum and I don’t really know how to take that off. Any suggestions? I am going to take this to a mechanic but as you know some mechanics can’t be trusted and I don’t want to go to Pepboys because they’ll rip me off and I’m not in a good financial position where I could afford to go to Pepboys. So any suggestions that you might have while the mechanic is working on the car so I know that he isn’t messing up something else? Thanks

Thank you so much Karl, I really appreciate and I will tell you how everything goes. I really hope its the spark plugs because the coils are expensive to replace. P.S. It does have the coil over plug equipped.
