2001 saturn ignition problems...(let me pick your brain)

[scum1]

As the title reads, my friend has a 2001 saturn sL1, and it has this problem where when you start it there is constant sparking and arching at the coil...now this saturn has two coils, 1st is plugs #4 #1, 2nd is #2 #3...the sparking is coming from the right coil, #2 and #3, so i first switched the coils to test that, and the sparking stayed on the coil to the right ( #2 #3)..so i dont think its a bad coil..the coils mount to the "ignition control module" per autozone diagram, so it could be that, theres two prongs that the coil attaches too and both coils sparked the same..my next guess was maybe bad plugs/ wires causing resistance and wanting to arc, or something to that effect, so i might try that. im gonna try the cheapest things first, but i wanted to see if anyone had some advice, maybe something im totally missing...basically the coil is just constantly sparking and arching..thanks in advance!!!
