I've seen FAR worse, lol.
Coil probably went bad because of extreme gap of the worn plugs. The standard gap for a TJ is .035.What's the gap?
I changed my plugs early this year and they all measured around 0.070". Ran just fine, I only replaced cause I was chasing a crank /no start that turned out to be the coil.
Could be. I had blamed the visible open crack in the plastic housing but the fact that it happened exactly when I had killed the battery running the winch goes along with the idea that the excess voltage required by the gap combined with the low voltage from the battery could have overstressed it.Coil probably went bad because of extreme gap of the worn plugs.

The change interval for stock plugs is 30,000 miles max. Should be sooner because of wasted spark ignition.Could be.
