Re: 03 lesabre shudders going up hill

If it were my 03 I'd take off each of the coils and measure the high voltage resistance and the low voltage resistance where the prongs plug in on the bottom. I'd inspect the bottom carefully and the the spark control module for corrosion. Reapply dielectric grease when reassembling. Then compare the readings for the resistances.
I did remove the coils a while back to inspect for cracks. I noticed the aluminum top of the module was all corroded white. Is this supposed to be cleaned and dielectric grease smeared between the module and the coil?

Something I forgot was the #4 injector wire was damaged at one time and they repaired it by splicing the wires back together with an awfull looking nylon covered crimp. Would this show a code if the circuit was not complete? If not, can you replace the injector electric plug on the harness? Do they sell the plug and two terminals? I have a duetz plug crimping tool and kit if they are near the same style crimp plier.

Also the trans oil has been changed/flushed at the dealer two times since new. They claim to get all the oil with this type of flush as they hook up a pump system. I did check the trans oil today and it is very clean.
