I just cut one out of a newer focus from the wreckers and soldered it and heat shrinked
and if you go to a u-pick yard... it fits in your pocket aka free
hahaha..thanks. I will try that.

i had coil pack issues recently, and while there were a few problems with my car, the engine had shut off on me a few times on the hwy but then come back right away. all power would be cut, radio and all. apparently dealer said my alternator was overcharging which was causing everything to shut off.
engine would start up again because it was a manual though.
The thing is, my radio, lights etc all works but engine would not start up again until I change the coil.
If it's not the connector...you guys think this could be a possible fuel pump problem too?
Although I think you should check all the things already mentioned first ... my 03 really ran a lot better when I re-did the grounds.
