MPV LX

We bought this car used with a hundred thousand miles and learn this the hard way. I can't believe there's no major complaints about this.

I don't know why but this problem keeps coming back every 20 thousand to 30 thousand miles. I got tired of putting it in the shop and it running $700, so I bought the ignition coil, plugs for 270 and a pack of beer and I replace them myself. The way the engine is design makes changing the spark plugs a nightmare.
