Explain what you mean by "skip". Elaborate on it and describe the "skip" a little more.

Is the miss constant, or intermittent?

my brother had the same problem. he changed the spark plugs and did some msd coil packs and everything was alright after that. runs like a champ

Are the coils supposed to have those springs in the end of them? When I pulled mine off I think only 2 had springs at the end of them and 6 didn't.

it seldomly skips @ low rpms 5th gear up a hill 1200 rpms. sometimes @ when idle it will act as if it is loading up. no power that i can tell is lost. just a little skip sometimes. it dont matter if cold or hot.
