Coil Pack Housing Recall
Saturday, April 23, 2011 4:22 PM
After getting a "random misfire" again in my 97 Sunfire GT for the second time in a month I was pretty pissed. About a month ago I put brand new spark plugs in and from the junkyard put in coil packs, and coil pack housing. It started misfiring again yesterday and I couldnt find the problem. So I went to a friend, who is a Gm Certified Master Tech, and has worked with GM for about 20 years or more. He had a scan tool and it read "random misfire" along with a P0420 (which has been on the car for a while now). We took the IDI cover off and the first thing he says is "I bet its that housing. When this QUAD motor came out, it had a recall on the Coil Pack Housing due to arching." We run up to Advance Auto and get a new housing and plug boots (since they have never been replaced). Problem solved

Anyways, the point of this post is I wondering if anybody had ever heard of the Coil Pack Housing ever being recalled on the QUAD motor?
