could be your ignition control module located under the coils, they go bad and sometimes the ground on them gets dirty or the wires themselves rot out over time and need to be replaced, just replaced one this winter in my grand prix and the coil itself actually cracked, not sure if there was water in it and it froze or if it was related to the ICM going bad.
