P1320 - Ignition Signal

so for a while my 2000 max gle will misfire at startup. It will go away within a few minutes usually and not throw a code. Well tonight it did it and the SES light came on and shut off immed. So I went over to AutoZone and had them scan it and it said it was a P1320 - Ignition Signal. I have no idea what that means but it sounds expensive. What do I do? Any help would be great. Thanks

Possibly bad coils/plugs. Coils = $60-70/ea, plugs = $6-8/ea
Also, you better be running permium fuel at ALL times. Don't be cheap and fill it up with the 87 water.
