I think my coild is bad , how much does it cost?

I have one that came with my 3L if you want it. Dirt cheap and only 10k on it. I'll even throw in the plug wires.

Buy new.

The whole she-bang with coil, wires & OEM double platinum sparkplugs shouldn't cost you more than $50.00

You'll want new plugs & wires since if the car is missing you may have fouled a plug & the wires could have been overstressed by a bad coil too. Doesn't hurt to just get the coil only, but it's good insurance to do it all.

I had Meineke replace mine with parts was like $110. Saved me the troube of getting to the rear sparkplugs too.

$70 for a coil pack at Auto Zone BTW.

Yeah, I was off on the costs there.

Coil is 71.99
Spark plugs (double platinum, OEM) are 24.00 for the set
Wires are around 40.00

that's $136.00 for parts alone. I figure 1 to 1.5 hours labor should be around another $70 or so. Or you could replace yourself, but those spark plugs near the firewall are hard to get to.

Good luck!

Just need a 6" + 3" extension. Come right out. I can swap a set in 20 minutes but I've done it 3 times already. Not hard at all. I would rather have 70 dollar dances at the local strip club and have the satisfaction of doing it myself.

in my world I'd strip the plug and then I'd be out more than $70!

Just amke sure the engine is cold and put some anti seize on the plugs and screw in gently. Kind of like a gynecologist.
