Re: intermitent no spark

PCM power Relay....located in the engine compartment fuse box
Less likely....but possible, Radio Interference Capacitor, mounted next to the coil pack....on the +12V in line (red with green stripe wire).

Other things that could be an issue, Camshaft Position Sensor, Crankshaft Position sensor and Constant Control Relay Module (CCRM).
