Will not start now, ran fine last night.....oh-my-- did all checks and gets gas but, found that not all spark plugs are firing, has only 68,345 miles. Has in the past 6 months been hard to start but not close enuf to make me wonder.... Is this just the coils gone south and or, should I take it to Hundai for the million dollar computer checkup etc. To keep it simple!

OK, I'm going mad...lol..! 3 of 4 were not and going from left to right from facing engine #1 was good #2 was bad #3 was intermittent...( not as many sparks as should be) #4 was not firing..! I did this with jumper form negative side battery to plug w/ plug(s) in wires. Also checked changing wires and plugs (switching them) to see if might be bad wires, plugs etc. Now, I just went to start it up and it started just fine....2 days it would not start..lol....GO FISH>>>! W/ 2 plugs out. put all plugs, checked, and runs fine! PULLED ALL PLUGS OUT TO CHECK ALL OVER AGAIN.... AND ALL ARE GOOD!!! Is this just the coils going bad???
Thanks for your reply n advance!

Your car has only one coil (p/n 27301-22040 $120.75). And yes, it sounds like it needs to be replaced.
