update:
I was able to do a couple things, I decided to change the bosch super plus plugs with the f8dc4 plugs i've been meaning to since 6k miles ago when the mech installed them, car was running fine so the big delay installing the proper plugs, result: still turns but no run.

Next I had stashed a complete set of coils in my closet and decided to do a rolling replacement of the old ones from #2 upto #6 attempting to start each time but no success. I then installed all 3 new coils with new boots with no success either. So much for my plugs/coil theory. I also tried on the new plug wires with the same sad result just as the sun set on the horizon along with my hopes to revive it today.

Anyone out there who can point me to a ''learned'' direction to what I should have done or what to do now? Or even just a plausible theory on what's going on? This is the first time in 4 years that it has not started in one click with a good battery.
