It is bad if u don't connect the right things with them. Also should run the wires according to the factory layout in order to avoid induction crossfires. FYI, the numbers stamped on the coils aremeaningless unless the coils are mounted on the proper position.

If sensors are bad the engine will run bad. You should take care of them first, and it may just fix your problem.

alright so here is wat happened
i put one of the new ECTs on and my car drives a lil better and the SES light went off but it still misfires
Does the ECT that controls the Temp gauge in the car cause it to misfire?
or does the IAC valve cause it to misfire cause i need both

The ECT sensor that feeds the gauge has only one purpose, and that's to feed the gauge. Wouldn't cause misfire. If you're IAC isn't working properly, it shouldn't cause any misfire, as the computer sees how much air is coming in and would adjust accordingly.

There are many problems that won't bring up the MIL. Misfirs are usually caused by ignition problems or fuel mixture problems. When is the last time that the plugs and wires were changed?
