Thanks for this video. I've been experiencing car problems and I felt like the mechanics were trying to take advantage of me, since I am girl. Your video is easy to understand and now I feel more confident about the subject. Great job!

@sgtpepperaut Correct, they get rid of the ignition coil and each spark plug has its own. Then the ECU is responsible for timing.
