Sounds like your coil packs must be going. Missing at higher rmp is normally a sign they are going.

coil packs are new. just put them in and they made a big difference in the way the car drives.

That's what I used. When you put it in, let the car run til it gets hot, then let it cool completely down. Then let it run again til it gets hot. Then let it cool down. It's the heating and cooling over and over that gets the Bar's leak to the leak spot in your coolant system and seals it up.

Keep doing it. On a day off run it for 15 minutes, let it sit for an hour or so, then run it again for another 15 minutes and let it sit for an hour or so. Do that over and over and over again all day. On the next day you should have it fixed.

Could be coolant burning. Is there white smoke? Or blue if it's burning oil.
