Replacement coils must always be the same basic type as the original and have the same primary resistance as the original. Using the wrong coil may damage other ignition components or cause the new coil to fail. Your engine is experiencing repeated coil failures, and it may be that the coil may be working too hard. The underlying cause is usually high secondary resistance (bad spark plug wire or spark plugs), or in some cases, a lean fuel condition (dirty injectors, vacuum leak or leaky EGR valve). Future coil problems can often be avoided by cleaning the connectors and terminals when the new coil is installed. Corrosion can cause intermittent operation and loss of continuity, which may contribute to component failure. Applying dielectric grease to these connections can help prevent corrosion and assure a good connection. The spark plug wires also should be replaced following a coil failure to assure a good hot spark. New plugs also should be installed if the original plugs are fouled or are at or near their service limit (45,000 miles for conventional plugs, 100,000 miles for long-life plugs). Hope this helps you.

The easiest way to test ignition coils on a 1992 Mustang 2.3 is to use an ohmmeter on the leads going into the coils.
Under ignition coils
There is an ignition coil connected to the top of each spark plug...so if you have a 6 cylinder motor, you have 6 plugs and 6 coils.
Check the ignition coils and the crank sensor for the Yukon. Either one of these could be bad and cause the problem.
Assuming this has the 3.8 V-6 engine, the three coils are plugged into the ignition module.
there are three coils located on top of the engine right at the fire wall, bolted to the ignition module
There is a total of 4 ignition coils.
Are you sure it's not ignition-The boat (housing for coils) is notorious problem with these engines & will cause it to run just like you blew a head gasket.

The most common cause that will trigger the P1320 code is the ignition coils. One or more ignition coils may have failed.
The easiest way to test ignition coils on a 1992 Mustang 2.3 is to use an ohmmeter on the leads going into the coils.
The ignition module is located under the three ignition coils. The same bolts that hold the coils in place also retain the module to the mounting bracket. To find the coils, follow the ignition wires from the front of the engine to where they attach at the rear. The wires clip to the coils.
Disconnect the battery. Remove the ignition coils. Remove the ignition control module that was under the coils, and replace it.
A bad coil can damage a converter. If the engine is misfiring, it will cause raw fuel to get into the converter and that can cause failure.
