2000 2.4 misfire

Hello I have a 2000 z24 2.4 and when its idling it recently started what i think is misfiring. It will idle fine then cut out for a sec. It appears to only do it when its idling. Should I start by replacing the coil packs?

I would start with diagnosing the problem, but the ol' throwing parts at it will eventually get you there too. Check the resistance of the coils, but a bad coil would probably not be just at idle. How long since a tune up? What's the fuel pressure? Any codes?
