I probably would have checked the existing ones prior to spending cash...you only have(looking at the coil pack) +12V -12V +5V

Thanks Keith's.
Started the car this morning and it's ok until it's hot. Then goes on to two cyls. I have removed the coil packs and can't see anything evident . But as they have done 146,000 I think it's more than likely the cause.

Check the crank sensor...pour cold water on it while it's misfiring
