Ignition Coil Question
Okay, well my car has just been weird for the past month or so. Here is what I am feeling:
Lack of power Hesitates on acceleration Shifting feels off (automatic) Misfire BAD gas mileage I replaced the fuel filter already and no change. OBD read Misfire in cylinder 3. Spark Plugs look OK and wires too.Less then 600 miles on them. SO,I want to know...when I go to buy a Ignition coil can I just get a non-name brand? I mean they basically do the same thing right? I know this could be a dumb question..lol, it's a matter of Generic vs. Name brand. All I know is when I buy the fake tylenol and real tylenol they work the same..  ..tee hee.Okay fellas that was it. Thanks in advance! |

I've heard bad reviews on the SD. I do not need any more problems...I'm trying to fix them..lol.
Okay,oem was always on my mind.I want to keep everything that has to do with the ignition oem. But what I mean is that, Autozone has the coil for ( NON-motorcraft) $54.99 but places online carry them for $24.95 and that sounds better.But there was no given name for the brand it only states exceeds OE standards. So would it matter? If the coil is bad, can't I just buy a new one...it doesen't matter who made it as long as it exceeds OE standards. |
