      mist the system with water while its running.. if the coil or wires are bad, it will light up.

      i forgot about paul's experience.

      misting is a good way, or if youre brave (some would say stupid lol) while car is running, pull plug wires off the coil individually. The toyota dealership I work at, we also have a hyundai dealership a few blocks up the road, one of our hyundai techs was trying to diagnose a P0300 on an 05 Aveo for their used lot. I asked him to start the car and I would do a power down cyl test, when I pulled the plug wire for #3 off the coil, it looked like a fire work display LOL, after showing that to the hyundai tech. he had the nerve to ask me if that was a problem or if it would cause a misfire.

      haha, ii do pull wires too, but only if you have a completely dead cylinder and are checking for spark.. if its still random multiple, it only misfiring a little bit, some spark still gets to the plug.

      ive had my heart reset a few times from a few coil packs..

      Too an extent, its kind of fun LOL. The really fun ones though, are when you have one hand resting on the core support and you pull the wire with your other hand and find out the hard way the the casing on the wire is messed up and you get to feel it all lol

      Ok the only thing I've been able to do is change the spark plugs and wires, I also misted the coil. No lightning storm going on there. But I threw an instant code P0132 O2 Oxygen Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank1, Sensor1). WTF???? Is it cuz I misted water at the coil and the O2 sensor connector is right beside..???
