First, welcome to the forum. Second, we are here to help. With that being said, we appreciate proper grammar and punctuation as well as clearly stated symptoms/problems, otherwise this post may be overlooked.

Please provide the codes the jeep has stored.

Codes provided by shop are:300,301,302.Mechanic at NAPA shop now believes failed coil pack.Makes sense, enough juice for idle not enough for off idle.

P0300-Random/multiple misfire detected
P0301-Misfire cylinder 1
P0302-Misfire cylinder 2

So you came on here for what then? You basically did no diag work and it's at the shop being repaired? If you weren't going to do the work yourself what was the point? I'm genuinely curious

Perhaps to get some knowledge so the shop doesn't rip him off haha

Lol well if I had a jeep come into my garage for diag and I have it down to the coil being bad and the customer comes back saying its got to be this other part because the interwebs told him so, I'd back his jeep out and tell him to have the interwebs fix it then.
