I have a bad coil pack(s). It is preventing me from maintaining normal highway speeds without throwing the CEL, and is making starting the truck very difficult. I already installed new plugs and wires, and the O2 sensors are all new (issue occurred before they were installed). Is there an easy way to test this? Or just bite the bullet and get a professional to obtain and install the packs? Just an FYI, money is a little tight because I'm getting married in <three weeks, so any money saving suggestions are welcome as well. I stopped to the local pick a part on Saturday and forgot to look for coil packs specifically, but frankly, many of the engines were either gone or smashed all to s**t. Thanks.

Why do you think it's the coil? Try moving it to another cylinder and see if the code changes to one indicating that cylinder.
