Which coil is it that keeps giving you the problem. Also are they stock LS1 coils, truck coils, aftermarket?

Stay away from aftermarket coils to start with. They are all junk GM did a great job with the oem coils. How many miles and what year.

Have you tried replacing that coil with a GM coil. Not beating a dead horse to death but grab a oem one and see if that fixes your issue. It might just do that.
