It was  probably 10 years ago when I read in an industry newspaper that  
the  people who manufacture automobile ignition coils estimate that 90   
percent of the ignition coils that are replaced have nothing wrong   
with them. I don't recall much else about the article, like how they   
reached that conclusion, but I do think about it whenever I am  tempted  
to replace a coil.


8% are standing on the side of the road insisting that there is nothing  
wrong with the coil, and 2% are replacing them.
 
BTW for those who may not know, 46.8% of all statistics are made up at the  
time they are quoted.
