When are you available to have people check out the car? Honestly you will need ignition coils and probably the wires as well. You can usually get all that from autozone/advanced auto parts for less than one hundred dollars. Myself or someone else in the area could install and clean some other essential parts while were at it and check for other possible issues.

yes and cleaning some sensors to help the car run better. (air flow sensor, essentric shaft sensor, doing a memory reset on the computer so it can learn how to run again with new wires and coils, etc)

i havent found the plug wires anywhere in stock yet, but the coils i found for as cheap as $29 each at autozone.. with more time i could find them a little cheaper im sure, or just using a rewards system they got you can get them online shipped to home for free for $93 for the set.
