You can clean the leads on the coil pack with a wire brush. Inspect the coil packs for any breaks.

Just look at the coil pack for any noticeable cracks or damage.

Sounds like your PCV(positive crankcase ventilation) valve. Your engine needs it. It's about a $5 part.

One of the great things about automotiveforums is when folks give feedback on their problem. That way the rest of us may learn what to look for when the same symptoms happen to us.
