I had two brand new non-factory coils go bad within a year of installing a replacement engine in one of my vehicles. Guess what I ended up buying after already buying the new ones?


OP - before spending money, I would check the basics...check that all coils are properly connected and secured and ensure there aren't damaged/frayed wires.

Regarding the odor of raw fuel, I would be checking for a leaking fuel injector seal or you may also be dealing with a sticking injector.

Being that you don't specify the make and model, note that there are auto mfg's with open recalls due to poorly secured fuel system components. A friend of mine had his Hyundai go up in flames 2 miles from taking it to the dealer to have the issue repaired.
