Default coil on plug?

does anyone know how to check which one may be bad or going bad if the CEL light has not come on?

use a scan tool, go to misfire data, the misfire data will list misfire counts for each cylinder.

not sure never used an autozone one but worth a try id guess. go into the data display tutorial, then there should be a selection for misfire data, once you select that its pretty self explanatory.
