I can't remember the code, but it was cyl 5 misfiring on the Camaro.

So, with SlickGTP's help, we decided that it was a bad wire.

I replaced that and still had a misfire, so I decided that it was a bad plug.

I replaced that and still had a misfire. Continuing on with my troubleshooting, I decided to replace the coil pack with another one I had laying around.

When I yanked the bad one, I found plenty of corrosion on the blades and terminals under there.

I used vinegar on the coil pack and am using baking soda and water on the blades of the ICM.

Now that it's been rinsed, I'm letting it all dry.

After I'm confident that all's dry, I'm going to plug it all in and see what the score is.
