Stupid Coil Pack!!!!!

My coil pack went out when I first bought my car (it was previously owned). The ended turned all green an grosse looking.
Because of it my car was idleing like crap. So I bought a new one from the Suby dealer. Then every thing was peachy again untill now. Its turning all green again and idling funny. I'm starting to think maybe theres something messed up with my engine. So could somebody help me out? Has this happed to anyone else?

Do you have a hoodscoop? Is it blocked or not?

Someone else I just talked to had a coil pack go bad like that, happened while he was living back in boston. Im wondering if maybe extra exposure to the elements could be causing it.

Maybe That's a possability. I just filed the corrosion off and put some di electric grease on I'm hope it's lasts but so far so good.

I think the green stuff is just oxidization on the coil pack. Probably caused by condensation. Di-electric silicons should fix it. As well as some Vasoline. They both work equaly as well.
