Are Duralast Ignition Coil Packs Reliable?
I would like to buy some new coil packs, since a valve adjustment didn't fix the CEL cylinder 4 misfire.

Has anyone used Duralast brand coil packs?

I think thats a $5 made in china coil.
If you don't want to get the dealer coil made by hitachi, you can get aftermarket hitachi coils. Or Denso coils are rebranded hitachi aftermarket.
About $60 each.

Thanks! I ended up just buying four Hitachi brand from RockAuto for under $50 each.

Yes Hitachi or Denso are great coils. Duralast doesn't make anything worth having. I throw their stuff away at work all the time.

I think the new Hitachi's I bought worked partially. The shifting is smoother, and engine vibrates less, as if it has less sputtering.

Thanks! I had a feeling Duralast was DuraPast!
