[@barnaclebill1615]

Thanks for your help. Very different setup than my Dodge Journey. 👍👍🇺🇸😁

[@fredleydiy]

I'm glad the video was helpful.

[@howlinwaters]

the ignition coil is most likely numbered that way because that is the firing order of the cylinders

[@kirbharp2157]

Great video! Thanks!

[@fredleydiy]

Thanks. I had a cylinder misfire which moved after I changed the plug. The Ignition Coil Pack resolved the issue and I changed the plugs and wire when I got back from vacation. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4DWgGCKraqgqNU

[@S.I.D.1992]

What is the part under the coil pack that the radiator hose connects to?

[@loucifer4205]

If you're car is misfiring it's the coil pack or packs and if your carbis older the distributor you can put mew wires and plugs in and it will probably run for a few days or more then it will start misfiring again if you beat on your car it could be internal or vacuum leak but for most normal drivers it's the coil pack going bad

[@ItsJusGeral]

[@unclestuntman]

Thanks! Very helpful. Did swapping the coil pack solve the issue or did you have to replace the wires and plugs? Also, if you replaced the wires and plugs did THAT solve the misfires? Thanks

[@fredleydiy]

Since I was out of town when the misfire started, I tried to do the minimum to resolve the issue. First I changed plug 4 which was what code P0304 pointed to. After that the code changed to P0301 which is cylinder 1. I guessed that it was the coil pack at this point, since it moved and replacing the coil pack resolved the misfire. After I was back got home I did replace the plugs and wires a week or so later. Here is a video kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4DWgGCKraqgqNU

[@chelealexander4922]

Would you happen to know where the direct ignition coils are on this vehicle

[@davidbwa]

Where is your power steering reservoir? On my 2002 T&C and in other videos it is mounted right above the coil pack. I'm assuming the answer is not "manual steering".

[@seanpowell7260]

This is a newer vehicle so the power steering reservoir is off towards the other side of the engine bay that you can't see in this video.

[@Xavie905]

me out , I changed the spark plugs and wires on my 01 Carvana and after doing that my van has a ruff vibration at ideal or coming to a stop on red. I got a mechanic to clean out the threading where the spark plugs go and it keeps doing it maybe it’s the coils ? I also need an oxygen sensor maybe that will do the trick? If anyone has been in this situation help me out thanks !

[@palangnar3588]

I have been working on my cars all my life and learned that each car has some weakness in some area , this dodge/Chrysler type( i have one),for example the #2 on coil pack goes more then others, look at yours looks rusty, even the wire should be change, but your code reader said 4 and 1 .

[@Roland-Henry]

My 2006 is idling and running too bad to drive. Strong smell of gas in the cabin as well. Replaced all plugs and 02 sensor, no luck. Could it be my coil pack?

[@fredleydiy]

I would try the coil pack and cables, if you haven't changed them already. The gas smell could be a failed catalytic converter or an exhaust leak.

[@snowstorm8867]

Roland Henry, I'm currently having the exact same problem. it runs bad almost bogs and smells strong gas inside cabin if vehicle. did you figure out what was wrong?

[@Roland-Henry]

@@snowstorm8867 Not yet unfortunately. It's been too hot outside lately to troubleshoot. Others have suggested a few things to try but I haven't had a chance: Belt tensioner, intake manifold gaskets (upper and lower), warped head from overheating (worst case scenario I guess). I personally would really like to take a peak above the gas tank to make sure all hoses are attached and intact and maybe even the fuel pump but gotta get all 4 tires up on something to lower the gas tank. I suppose it could also maybe be our Catalytic Converters. Sucks there's so many possibilities with these symptoms.

[@britishsterling.]

So does this vehicle not have individual coil packs on each spark plug?

[@fredleydiy]

No it does not, just a single coil pack for all 6.

[@britishsterling.]

@@fredleydiy ok thank you.

[@user-kv5kj7ow6z]

I can't figure out why number 6 is not firing

[@louisequesinberry4303]

Will coil pack keep van from running.then starting. Then not start again

[@fredleydiy]

I have had coil pack failures where the engine would not start at all or where it would start and cause 1 or more cylinders to misfire and run rough. As long as the plugs and wire are good, replacing the coil pack resolved the issue. In this video, replacing the coil pack fixed the misfire. I did replace the plugs and wires, once I was back home. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4DWgGCKraqgqNU

[@louisequesinberry4303]

@@fredleydiy thank you. Very much. This helps

[@alishawinters8247]

I've charged my coil pack twice and it's still arcing..

[@fredleydiy]

Have you tried changing the plugs and wires? kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4DWgGCKraqgqNU

[@TheGeno2001h]

Thank you but what’s the reason you change it how you know is bad? What I mean what’s the car doing just for information thank you

[@fredleydiy]

This vehicle started to hesitate and so we pulled the code at Autozone, which was P0304, cylinder 4 misfire. Since we were on vacation, I tried to quickly resolve the issue without doing a full plug, wire and coil pack replacement, so I replaced the spark plug in cylinder 4. After that it started throwing code P0301, cylinder 1 misfire, so I guessed it was the coil pack and went ahead and replaced the coil pack, which resolved all of the misfiring issues. Once we were home from vacation, I replaced the spark plugs and wires: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4DWgGCKraqgqNU .

2,4,6 3,1,5 you say along the back .. But then you take all the wires off the back all at once did you notice that and you didn't put them back in the correct order watch your video again ...... and you pulled number two plug wire off and the boot the copper boot was left on the coil pack and you're using Snap-on tools ... you are A PROFESSIONAL in the field of amateurs I don't even have Snap-on tools .... It Startup huh those wires are bad if it was your car would you not have changed that out and cleaned up your woman's van for her it's a soccer moms van 😂😂😂 .... ... E-3 plugs ....
