I've had to replace both coils in my 2001 Sportage in the last few months. The boot or "link" (the part which connects to the plug directly under the coil) went bad on the coil. However, you can't buy just the link, you must buy the entire coil. You could see the small hole in the rubber boot. At first I thought it was only a bad plug. A new plug would last about a day before it started working bad again. Changing the coil fixed the problem right away.
