[s-cars] loss of power, engine shakes

[Michael G.Cancellier]

Hello everyone,

I am going through the same troubles as Konstantin. I figure I will be 
replacing either a POS or the #1 cylinder coil pack. Does anyone have 
an idea of the costs of the two parts? Also, what does it take to 
replace the coil pack?

TIA,

Mike
