Ok, this is odd.

I mentioned getting this 02 Corolla awhile back. I just went to look at the
plugs, to see if they're iridium, or what, but ( and this is the first time
I've ever had this happen ) I cant find them!

Ok, where are they hiding the plugs???

The plugs are in the head, hiding under the coils. Each plug has an
individual coil. Look for 4 coils evenly spaced across the head.

Wow. Each plug has it's own coil? My '95 Tercel had two coils with a wire
coming off them and going to the adjacent plug, so you had
coil/wire/coil/wire.

Now I'm gonna have to go look under the Scion's engine cover and see
what's there. These coil packs arfe notorious for going bad, and I don't
want to think of replacing four of them. The ones for the Tercel were $135
each!

Remind me to remove them one of these days and apply dielectric grease so
if I DO have to remove them I don't wreck the connectors!

I'm still running on coil/condensor/points, myself...

The Scion will have 2 or 4 coils.
