I started her up the other day and a loud tick, snap, repetative was coming from up front the noise doesn't accelarate w/ the gas pedal, I then noticed that the idiots before me must have used
10 tubes of JB WELD on the coilpack!!
I purchased a new coilpack and coils with wires they'll be here soon,
Anyone have a writeup or link to a DIY video?

jb weld is a cheap quik fix for the coils but eventuly it wont always fix it, spark plugs i went with ngk iridiums theres a big debate as wich is the best andd gaping them im prety sure the specs are in the bently manual

 

[pow3r hour]

get ngk bkr6e plugs. Cheap, and work well. The coil pack is pretty simple to do. If you have any questions when doing it, just ask em on here.

Why would you JB Weld a coil pack when a new one is only 75-80$?

Check out http://www.ufixitauto.net
That's where I got it from. Lifetime warranty and free shipping only took one business day!
And JB Weld is a temporary fix, and not always a complete fix. You can still experience misfires and arcing with that cheap fix.

Been running it for about a week now. No issues at all and I've even noticed a bit of an improvement in throttle response as well as fuel economy compared to my old OEM coil pack. Most likely just because it was a factory part.
