Throwing 02 01 code

I checked my engine codes and I'm throwing a 02 01 code, apparently that has to do with something with the ignition, i was thinking perhaps coils since I have a 99 and they're notorious for that, any ideas? It also said I should have a misfire code, but i only got one, but the car feels awfully slow and idles kinda shaky, so it leads me to believe I have a bad coil. I only have 48,000 miles on the car right now, so I dont know...Any ideas would be helpful, thanks!

What was hte misfire code? It will tell you which coil you need to replace. But if I were you, I would replace all 6 with Mitisu coils.

I just got them from Dave B for $375....I don't wanna deal with it, especially since 1999's are notorious for those damn coils. I got Mitsubishi coils, lol and apparently Dave never heard of people saying they were better, I was the first one lol.

edit. I had no misfire code...so im just replacing all 6

People need to stop with the mitsu and hanshin coil BS. Both my 96 have hanshins, the good pre 99 hanshins, and they are fine. One has 102k the other 77k. Only the 99 hanshins are bad. Get older ones and you'll be fine.
