I have no experiences with using the voltage meter. I don't even have it in my garage. I'm going to get one, and the fuel pressure gauge also.

To check the fuel injector if it's squirting, you pull out all four injectors from the cylinders and then you would wrap each one of them in a plastic bag. You don't want them to spray gas on your engine block (if there is a spark, you know what will happen). Have someone crank the engine for you. You will be watching each injector to see if they are spraying or not.

I mean remove all four injectors from the intake manifold with the gas line (fuel rail) still attached to them.

When you crank the engine. The injectors will spray out gas.

Also don't do this when the engine is too hot. I'm afraid the engine will catch fire if you accident spray gas everywhere.

cover the battery with cloth or something.

Could this be your car problem?
The battery should be secured so it's not moving, bouncing, ..
Clean the negative, and positive terminals of the battery so electricity can flow easily.

What did you find out about the coil pack? Have you tested it when cold and after it stalls out?

When it stalls out I've tested it and it has no spark. It's weird I drive for and hour with any problems and this morning it started acting up again. Do coil packs act up that way in a muti pack like this one. I don't know I have only experianced it it single coil per cylinder
