same here.

The biggest mystery to me is why I have apparent normal spark on #2, but almost nothing on #3 since they are “shared”

seems to be a bad coil.

My my neighbor has a ‘93 so I borrowed a coil and it ran great.
I’ll continue down the path of new coils, wires and the remaining 4 plugs.

Thanks for all your help RonD

Well it was a long shot, 2 coil packs that failed in exactly the same way, but apparently it wasn't a no shot, lol

i had assumed they were both good, when perhaps one was already bad and then the other one failed.
