Any check engine light? ECT, fuel filter, fuel pump, coil, crank sensor are just thinks that pop to the top of my head.

First step is to figure out if its fuel related or ignition related.

The first thing to do is scan for codes. The problem isn't the "coil", the coilpack contains three separate coils, and I wouldn't think all three coils would go out at the same time.
