    Check the ohm's on the relay before the coil (also known as a charge/power distribution) to make sure it is within specs.

    2000 Ford Focus Coil Pack

    Does this coil pack run 2 cylinders? In any case, you need to match the original pack. That super pack that the Zone and Advanced sells isn't for regular cars and doesn't sync well with the originals.

    I've seen cracked coil packs fixed with plastic weld and last for years. Crazy, but my old boss was CHEAP!
