Can't say I've used an oscilloscope on an LT5. A modern oscilloscope with an induction pickup (like on a timing light) that can be moved from wire to wire would be best. This YouTube video might help. Interesting to note that the guy talks about half a coil pack not firing.

Switch two coils and see if the "weak spark" follows the coil. Switch plug wires and check again for weak spark, then switch plugs same thing. Going back to basics, do all the plugs look the same in so far as color and build up on the plugs.
