    Coils!

    I just thought I'd start this thread to celebrate the first coil replacement under my ownership.

    When it went I went from mad to proud. I am now* one of you.

    :-P :-D

    *Okay so technically it was last week, but still.

    Lol I think I might finally get around to changing my plugs and COP's this summer. But then again I've been saying that since before last summer haha.

    I just did the one. Others were replaced by previous owners but I'm not sure which ones. The plugs have less than 7,000 on them per previous owner.

    This COP took me by surprise and I needed the vehicle the next day so I overpaid Autozone but then I went on Amazon and ordered übergeneric COPs in an 8 pack for $52 for the future. I'm not going to replace them until they actually fail though. I'll keep them in the truck.

    If only it was like that on my truck so I wouldn't need 50,000 extensions and a contortionist to reach the rear-most ones lol.
