Yes, a coil can spark and still be bad. Spark production indicates that the coil is generating voltage, but it may not be delivering sufficient power or maintaining proper resistance, which can lead to poor engine performance or misfiring. Additionally, other issues such as weak insulation or internal shorts can cause the coil to fail under load, even if it produces a spark during a test.

coil makes enough juice ( Amp) to spark the spark plugs. A faulty spark plug stops the coil to empty all the juices it has made and this makes the coil itself goes bad.


Symptoms of a 1998 dodge stratus bad coil pack?

symptoms are: you can hear the engine missing, spitting and sputtering, loss of power...you can tell if it is a coil pack by unscrewing the spark plug that it connects to coil pack. when you look at your spark plug it should be a light grayish, white..this means the coil pack is working....it is best if you do this with new spark plugs, because your spark plugs could be bad. but you do this process until you find a bad plug then, that coil pack probably is the bad coil pack.
