Tune up question
My 99 c43 with 139k runs great but its time for a tune up.My list as follows wires,plugs and clean maf,injector flush and new green filters.Do I need to change the coil packs? Did valve cover gaskets about 2k miles ago.On a few coil packs I get a little oil on them and sometimes when I start the car it will shut down then crank again and its fine. Never had a CEL since I've owned the car.My Indy said 50/50 to change the coils.What do you think?

I guess if you have a faulty coil(s), it(they) should appear with an error code. How comes you get some oil on them if you replaced the gaskets recently. You still have a leak somewhere?

You still have a leak somewhere? Yes that's what baffles me a little.Under the car is dry no evidence of oil leakage.So pull codes to see if anything is awry....Does this need to be done via STAR or some other way? Thanks.
