I will most likely replace the coil (cheap enough) to be sure. Also, I wanted to note that it never stalls while in park, idling. Does the fuel pump put out the same pressure continously regardless of the acceleration amount? If so, it seems that it would act up occasionally at that time as well. thanks for the info
