Will Bolt-down coilpacks fit on a AWP engine?
I have been trying to find cheap coilpacks and have found some at PepBoys but they are saying that I need the push in's. Then they said that the packs were on back order. I am debating going to the Stealership and getting them. They quote $45 per pack ($180 + tax). Im going to put them on myself so no additional costs. Also is it harmful to the engine to drive with the two packs sticking out? They come out EVERYTIME I start the car and drive it. TIA
Sorry if I am annoying all of you about this. I just want to get it back to normal. I did search on here but didnt really find what I want. Again I am sorry if I am annoying all of you.

You think the plugs could cause the backing out?
This was happening before I change my plugs but it was happening to coilpack 2 and sometimes 3, just not ast often. Now its packs 1 and 3.

have you changed the CP's to other cylinders, and what happens? >
do the SAME cp's pop, or does it stay with the cylinders???
Try that. might be a valve cover issue somehow, or else something with the specific cp's. Sorry if you've already posted this and I missed it.

not talking about the plugs. change the CP's from one cyl to another. >
that'll tell you if it's the Cyl or the CP. then if it stays with the cyl, check the plugs or the valve cover.

Ok I just switched them and test drove. Here is result.
I switched 1 and 2 then 3 and 4. As I switched I looking in the Packs and all but the original #4 pack were black/gases looking on the inside. Original #4 was brass looking. After the drive I looked under the hood and the #2 pack was sticking out. I couldnt tell on #4 because it was under the metal but it wasnt sticking against the metal piece. Does this mean its the packs or what? Thanks for your help GorTT.
