pxl_20210603_002916741.jpg We were adjusting the shift linkage when a cloud of stinky smoke came out from under the hood.  We feared the worst since it looked to have come from around the firewall area and tracking down a wiring issue that would kill the PCM would take forever.  Luckily, we noticed strange orange burnt particles near the coil packs and we then realized this coil pack had spit its guts out the bottom.  The key had been "ON" for about an hour while we were working on the linkage but I have no idea why it would do this, unless maybe we cracked it while making the coil bracket.  We swapped the coil and put in a new fuse and she roared to life!
