Re: Could this be an ignition coil problem?

Does flooring the throttly while starting change the car's behaviour?
Let your car sit for a night or two and then pull out the plugs. Look at
them and the cylinders.
If they're wet, you probably have leaking injectors. How does the car run at
higher RPMs under load?
Ignition problems mostly show up under such conditions.
Another possibility might be the ECU, but at the moment I doubt that.

My altima is not starting well for over a month now. I have to turn
the key
3-5 times to get it to start, before it starts it's as if it's out of
gas, sometimes the engine will almost start then stutter and fail,
after another couple
tries it will finally start. I have checked the wires from the coil to
the
distributor and from the distributor to the plugs, both seems to have
weak
spark, what is weird is that the gas mileage is normal, wouldn't it be
off
if the spark or the fuel were screwed up?
