Spark plug number five is misfiring and the van is running real sluggish like it wants to cut off while on. I just want to know if you think the control module or coil has gone out? I changed spark plugs and wires then it started doing it there was no check engine lights on before he serviced the car

Hey Nicholas,

I would remove the spark plug you installed and replace it with a new one, sometimes they can get cracked when installing them.

Please let me know.

Best, Ken
