Mostly no but a weak coil fires a spark plug even worse under high engine loads.

Josh takes the bacon here.
This weekend I pulled the plug wires on the inner plugs while running and nothing happened. Tested the LH drivers coil (should be 3-3.5 ohms between poles) and it was totally dead. RH coil tested good. Its got the green 3 ohm dyna coils.
Ordered a new set from Z1 this morning.
Thanks all!

If no affect when you pull cyl 4 switch cyl 4's plug wire with cyl. 1 's plug wire. If the problem jumps to cyl 1 then it's most likely electrical related if not it's most likely something mechanical.
