Default 2007 Mustang GT with coil on plug problem

Will it hurt anything to run with 7 Accel COPs and 1 stock COP until my replacement Accel arrives?

No... You just won't be getting as hot of a spark.

When I had one go bad I switched them all back to stock until I received a replacement.
At worse you would throw a code but I doubt anything would happen.

With one at 20K volts it shouldn't be a problem.

you may receive a misfire code, this is because 1 cylinder is not fireing as hot as the others, i've heard of this hapening.

Yeah, good point. I think as long as there is some spark, it won't do anything.
