    I just had Check Engine Light issues, with 3 cylinders misfiring. I was able to fix that with new plugs.

    My issue, when I removed the ignition coils, I found that 2 of the coils were missing the gaskets, and one had some dirt in the hole, the other had water.

    Where can I get these gaskets? I can't seem to find them online. I have denco coils, and they looked good, the issue is resolved, so I don't want to replace the coils.

    Thanks for any guidance!

    Water in plug well is caused by the gasket on the edge of the windshield water dam seal has deteriorated or is no longer glued down. There was a TSB for that years ago. If its in good shape just get some weatherstrip glue and glue it back down. if you pull on it you'll see its no longer glued down.

    Also the car has to see torrential rain for the water dam to overflow or its clogged with leaves. Using a control flow garden hose fill up the dam with the hose and you should see good flow out of that dam behind both front wheels. Nice strong stream from behind each front wheel. If not that dam is clogged and water is just pouring over the dam right onto the top of the engine.

    I bought 4 from them last week and replaced them. Old rubber was from 2004.
