lol, I would be taking it somewhere else, if one coil was bad seems probable that another might be suss as well. By the sounds of it you know what it was like when the coil went last time and if it is similar then that's where I would start looking. I would look at taking it to elite or bps

just a thought but I would replace the coil packs anyways, $145 for a set on e-bay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-BA-BF-IGNITION...1742.m153.l1262

can give you a hand if you are on the sunny coast, can change over the plugs in my FG in 30 minutes now

Problem all sorted, as you guys thought it was either the coil packs or the plugs, so I've replaced the lot (by myself Yewww)

Car is running beautifully, back with it's full 325kw...... and wants to break traction frequently again.

Lol

Thanks to all for your advice

Couldn't really tell from looking at coil packs, but the plugs were a bit grubby

I replaced the coil packs (set of 6 for $150 via ebay) and all 6 spark plugs (set of 6 for $90)..... problem solved

I figured if I replace all coils and all plugs I should knock the problem on the head and it worked perfectly.

Car is running awesome, putting the foot down feels good again! lol
