Car running weirdly

Well it's CONFIRMED... i think.

Car hasn't been missing for a while, since I swapped the coils over.

(Remember that the old/bad 2/3 coil is at coils 4/1.)

Decided to start it up this morning, MISFIRE, take out leads 4/1, no spark at all.

Take out lead number 3, spark jumps, starts the car back to normal again ( like it would before)

So can we confirm it's the coilpack?

I'd try a new coil pack for sure.

Received new coilpack today, will put it in today or tomorrow.

It's a used one, but it looks much better condition than the current one, however there seems to be slight oxidation inside the coil pack post/towers.

What is the best way to remove it?

edit: wording- corrosion---> oxidation

Alright after 6 or so pages/ 1 month, it was the coilpack.

Had a bit of a mix up with 4 pin and 3 pin coilpack, but in the end it was resolved.

Cheers for the help
