hey guys i got a question. ok about two months ago i was leaving work and my car just would not start up. it was cranking it just wasnt turning over. so i knew i wasnt getting a spark. so i went out and changed out all three ignition coils. now last night when i was about to leave work i started up and then it just died. now im wondering if its my coils again, is there a bigger problem than just some bad ignition coils. could a control module going bad cause the coils to go bad.

Coils won't go bad that quick unless they are damaged realy badly or there just crap.
Do an ohm check on your coils that should tell you some thing.

if the coil was bad, or was shorted intrnaly the pcm minght not let it spark to protect the ICM, or i dont think it will start on 4 cuase i had 2 plugs out and i could not get mine to startwww.turbov6camaro.com
