COP's.
Saw this product from a few other forums, was wondering what the thoughts were on them or other coils out there outside motorcraft for the mm.

Stick with motorcraft. None of the aftermarket coils are reliable.

I had them in my white GM and loved them. I just put them in my marauder, but I'm still breaking my engine in and seating the steel rings. Less than 250 miles on it. Will update later.

Why not just stick to OEM Motorcraft and save $40.00 to boot.

Just hitting the wall with all the issues on my miss/hesitation. So just getting some thorough research in before I get the plugs. If there is a better product I am willing to try.

Was having slight hesitation issues too and I decided to upgrade thinking more voltage is better.

Went with Granatelli aka "Crapatelli". Within 4-5 months one coil failed and then within days it was all downhill from there with several more failing.

Stay away from Crapatelli's!!!!

I then installed brand new OEM Motorcraft coils and been running like a champ.

Do you have a tuner like an sct? If so, you can datalog every individual cylinder for misfires. That's how I found my bad coils.

Would you be willing to share your .cfg file so I'd know what to log?

Actually, yes. I have a config file specifically for misfires that I can send you when I get home. PM me your email addy and I'll send it later.

Yes I do, and tried following the link but it wont pick.up the sct, tried trouble shooting but no luck. Was wondering if it is because it was locked!? Would love to do it tho! Tired of this issue. If you have any knowledge besides the thread on here it would be a huge help. Thanks.

I went with Visteon. I believe they are OEM for Ford.
