If you have a misfire on all 4 cylinders you have your choice of replacing them all and hoping that is the problem OR finding a local s2k owner willing to swap coil packs for a day to see if the misfire clears up. If you can't find someone to trade coil packs with, then you have an expensive gamble...either the coil packs or the injectors are bad and there really isn't a good way to tell unless you replace one or the other. Ignition Coil packs run about $90 each. Some part of the engine, it probably overheated and you just need to replace the cylinder heads or if lucky the little rubber seals that most likely melted.
