For all I know its the same product, but it might give your ignition (sparkplug) wires some extra life and stop shorts/arcing which may be preventing the cylinders from firing. For a $5 (hopefully) can of that, you might at least temporarily get rid of your problem.
Some mechanics I recall in the past spraying motors with WD-40, I can't remember if that was to drive out moisture or provide an insulating barrier to electricity.

Hey thats seems like a good idea. I will look at autozone today and see what I can find. I wonder if silicone would work? I still want to test the coils at night but haven't had a chance to. The car has been running great since the weather is nice.
One more thing I noticed today. When starting the car the service engine light did not come on for a second. I thought every light should come on to test when starting a car... airbag...ect. Because it did not throw a code when it did this so maybe when I am at autozone I can see if it still threw a code.
