It's an ignition coil pack. A bunch of our sponsors should have them.

If you look to the right of the screen when you have this thread open, you will see a whole bunch of our sponsors. OR, you could do some searching. OR, you could go to the tool bar at the tippy top of the forum and click where it says "MARKETPLACE" and there will be a ice big list of sponsors for your purchasing pleasure.

No. That's just the spark plug. If the ignition coil is messed up, you need to replace the coil. Not the spark plug. If you have a bad coil, new spark plugs aren't going to do jack diddly.

Hey. I don't mean to be a d!ck, but it sounds like you might not know exactly what you are doing.

HOW do you know that all your coil-packs are messed up? Because to me, it just seems like someone of your skill level just might not have the where-withall to make that kind of call...

Well. cracked isn't good, so you are probably better off. But you should make sure its your only problem if you have a fried ECU.

Maybe we should hear the whole story of what happened to get a better idea!

well about two months ago my ecu fried. i finally got one on Saturday and it works fine. the mechanic that is looking at it found that the inginition coils were all cracked. he said that might also be why the car is not turning on

well if I were you, I would check the coils themselves to see if they are actually not working or if something else (like wiring) is fried. Having an ECU go on you can mean alot of things really and I'm getting the impression your mechanic really didn't give your problems more than a once over...

we checked all the wires, he replaced the one that made contact and made the ecu fried. starter is fine, i have a Working ECU now, the only thing we can find wrong is this for right now.

OK, sounds like you got it good man

But I'm just warning you, strange situations aside, it is very odd to have all four go at once. Good luck and make sure to use the site sponsors!
