Rust on coil pack is it bad?
Hello I just checked my spark plugs (AutoLite Xtreme Performance) and they were shot after only 40,000 miles. I looked at the coil pack and the 2nd(?) coil is rusted on the heat shield and the plug is really burnt, I cleaned it with a soft brush and am picking up some NGK plugs tomorrow morning but should I even bother? Is my rail shot?
Also that stupid clip broke off on the connector, I was able to slide the plastic thing back in and clip it so it doesn't seem like it's the end of the world I hope...
Here's a link to the album with all the pictures on OneDrive https://1drv.ms/f/s!AsN7_5ta_nHLl609Rz8FKTQ0H35wUQ

That would explain it, 1.8L may use a slightly different part. that coil pack/ boots looks like what the Opel uses in Europe, if I'm not mistaken the early model year 1.8L was made in Europe.
