You may need to change your spark plugs as they may have been fouled, or your fuel injectors could be dirty, or your fuel pump could be going bad. Did you open it up yet?

here you go...pulled my coil pack off first thing this morning......

Coilpack 1 - Bubble on the inside of it is fried.




Coilpack 2 - just pulled off and same bubble just not as big.



Sure enough my cylinder 2 coil pack is fried....not sure why this is happening..I am assuming I probably need to replace my spark plugs in my car and do a full tune-up today.

no need to replace the valve cover. After im done at the shop we can see what we can do with it tomorrow. If all else fails we can pull the cover off. Drill it out and retap. It should be the standard 6mm x 1.0 thread
