   If your Dodge had the Hemi V8 engine, it would have a dual coil over with   
   dual wires, one to a plug in the cylinder under it, the other to a plug in   
   the opposite bank. Yes, they have two plugs per cylinder. One coil fires   
   when the cylinder is near tdc, while an opposite coil will fire the 2nd   
   plug when that cylinder is on an exhaust stroke. All in the name of   
   emissions control. Someone told me a hundred years ago that the Chrysler   
   hemispherical combustion chamber was inefficient and I guess this proves   
   it.
