Problem overview

Some Oldsmobile Aurora owners report experiencing starting issues after changing the battery and spark plugs, potentially due to a faulty coil pack. These owners note that a malfunctioning coil pack can lead to poor engine performance, including symptoms like rough idling and misfires. Additionally, they may find that testing the coil pack with a multimeter for resistance levels or checking for specific diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) can help identify the problem. If the coil pack is determined to be the issue, replacing it with a new one and ensuring proper installation is crucial for resolving the starting problem. It is recommended that owners align the new coil pack correctly with the spark plugs and test the engine afterward to confirm functionality.
