Random Cylinder firing problems

just picked up my MP3 the thurs before x-mas and since then i have had some problems with the vehicle first off heater didnt work and it had a check engine light on as soon as i left the dealer.. ok no biggy take it back they covered everything had to wait on the parts though.. well the pre-cat on my car leaks badly. and i just changed the plugs but sometimes it feels like i just lose 2 cylinders for no reason.. and i cant figure it out i looked at the wiring and i checked the coil packs visually not electricly.. * dont know how to * but would i be safe to say that it is one of my coil packs that is bad? or is it possible just cause my car is running really rich with my check engine light on?
 
ok well i think i found out what is up with my car possible.. today on my way home from kentucky my car kept feeling like it was running on 2 cylinders. well i finally got to my area and stopped at an autozone and popped my hood my pre-cat that was just installed was glowing cherry red. and i had a multi-cylinder misfire.. so my dad figures that the whole time something has been clogged in my exhaust and that is what the 1st pre-cat got ****** up cause it wasn't completly sealed either when i got the car. and now the one on my car now isnt completly sealed after this incident. so i guess we will see if the dealer is gonna replace all my exhaust componets and hopefully it will fix my problem if not i will be buying some coil packs
