Hey y'all, I could use a greater understanding of the coil pack ignitions. My work truck has the 5.4 and I've had coil problems 3 or 4 times in the last year.

My boss likes to save money so the first couple of times he replace only the ones that were bad. As you and anyone else but him would expect, the ones that weren't replaced went bad shortly after. 

I'm getting grief from the boss because it's been to the shop 4 times and it's cost a grand each time. But the 3 trucks that blew trans at $5500 each arent. 

I'm trying to determine if these are going bad because of my driving or if this is a sign of something else that is making them go bad. 

My ranger has never had any problems with its coils and I've had pretty good luck with my personal vehicles because I maintain them. 

I take it pretty hard when I get disrespected by the boss and cant help but return the disrespect. I care more than the others and that's why I take it so personal. 

I'd appreciate a coil pack education and any info that might explain why these are going bad so often. 

Thank you
