Yes, you have 2 options for testing.
You can remove the fuel injector wire from the fuel injectors one by
one, and the cylinder that doesn't cause the engine to slow is the one
that isn't working.

A more direct method is to invest in a cheap set of spark plug wires,
and temporarily install them in place of the stock "boots, so you can
run the engine with the coil cover off.   Then hook up an inductive
timing light to the wires one by one, and the one with the bad coil will
become obvious.

HTH,
Bob

One or more of my coils are shot. Is there a sequence of steps to take
to
see which one it is to avoid testing every one. Also, for someone as
unmechanical as myself, is this something you can do on your own without
problems?
