The coil system in your engine has a big job to do. It takes the power from the battery and juices it up to the power numbers needed for the spark plugs. While this might seem like a singular duty, if these packs cease up, you will experience multiple issues. Faulty coil components may cause a slight or not so slight misfire, bad fuel economy, loss in power, and in some rare cases loss of braking performance and power steering problems. To restore engine power, replace those worn coil packs and while you're at it, replace the other components as well to ensure optimum performance.
