You know the coil pack sounds like a likely suspect. I put a new timing belt in this last summer when I put this engine in and last month I replaced the fuel pump. Just in the past few weeks the idle has been funky. He said it idles rough then quits and there's a 'clunk' which could be like a back fire. I just put new plugs and plug wires (good quality one's) in this just this week as he had a check engine light that read to be a "misfire cylinder #1". The plugs and wires seemed to clear up the misfire, but the doesn't mean it wasn't the coil pack failing. This is something he could easily buy and change himself. I can't think of anyway he could get it tested unless he took it off and took it to an Autozone or someplace like that. Pisser is I have another coil pack sitting on the shelf out of the Escort he wadded up last summer! Thanks everyone for your suggestions!
