What year and trim?

Any CEL codes? Checking whether the timing belt slipped seems like a good idea.

Just to make sure it isn't the ICM or Coil.

Yes, it could be a low coil. Check first the timing belt, is not check your coil. Spark should be almost white ( not yellow ) and it have to be able to jump several inches.

Good idea to replace your timing belt if haven´t been change ever.
