So far (156K miles) my REX ignition has been OK, but I have seen a few posts about the coil pack.

It is mounted to the heat sink by 2 TORX-head screws. The advice as I recall it is to remove the heatsink, clean off the mounting surfaces on both parts, then remount the coil using fresh "Heat Sink Grease" (Radio Shack 276-1392).

IMO, it would be worth trying—and I may just do it preemptively on my 940.

Removing and reseating the connectors can't hurt either.
