I had similar problem...Ensure that when you replace the Ignition Coil, you also replace the spark plug (might as well do all 4) and the wires. This will prevent further Coil problems. The Coil could blow the plug or wires and when you replace the coil, the plug /wires will blow out the coil again. Also get a full diagnostic...specifically check to ensure the Head Gasket Cover is still good.
