Default missed shift - *another update*

Many of you read my thread about missing a shift, if not, it's down a little.

Anyways, the damage found yesterday was blown coil packs and bad wires on cylinders 5 and 6.

Today, discovered that the fuel injectors on 5 and 6 are bad. They apparently sucked in a bunch of carbon when the coils blew. <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />

Never heard of this happening. I figured it'd be some pushrods and a valve. Here I am needing two coil packs and two injectors.

Anyone have any idea how this would happen? I'm baffled.

Sounds like its not too bad if your valvetrain and drivetrain are ok.
