The less efficient the combustion of your engine, the more fuel is going to be wasted. This leads to a decrease in fuel economy. When you take your vehicle in for a tune up due to decreased fuel economy, checking the ignition system in general (including the coil packs) is going to be one of the very first places that a mechanic is going to look at.

Bad Coil Packs are one of the more problematic ignition issues that can occur with the Honda Pilot. A bad oil pack can make your Pilot almost un-drivable. Or it may have little effect at all on the engine’s ability to run. It’ll get worse as they lose their ability to fire the spark plugs.
Here are the most common symptoms of bad coil packs:
There are several misfire related trouble codes. more
Failed vehicle starting attempts eventually lead to wet spark plugs, according to E3 Spark Plugs. This happens when drivers attempt to start their vehicles multiple times without success. This can lead to engine flooding, which in turn can soak the plugs so they're unable to form any kind of spark to start the engine. This often happens in cold weather conditions, when spark plugs that are previously worn or fouled require a higher voltage to ignite the engine. In this case, the best thing a driver can do is either wait for the plugs to dry, or remove the plugs and clean them off. more
Wet fouling is less common on modern fuel-injected engines, but can happen due to a number of mechanical failures, states AA1Car.com. One example is a leaking cold start injector. This would lead to the creation of a rich start up mixture in the engine compartment that would cause the plugs to foul.
When a vehicle engine is reluctant to start, it often means that the spark plugs need changing. Like many automotive components, spark plugs don't last forever. A common malfunction is a wet spark plug. According to AA1Car.com, this occurs when the spark plug fails to fire, or fouls out. This can be caused by a number of variables, such as engine flooding, or excessive moisture build up. here
In older vehicle engines, worn piston rings or excessive cylinder wear often lead to wet fouling, states Mopar Magazine. This could result in the release of excess oil or gasoline into the engine compartment, which could prevent a spark from forming during an ignition attempt. Wet-fouled spark plugs can be cleaned and re-installed to work effectively. here
The IX is NGK’s premium spark plug line. You can expect outstanding longevity (easily more than 80-90k miles), so the higher price tag is generally worth it. more
Here are a few recommendations I have for you:
Always double-check your vehicle fit! For NGK, you can do that on their site. here
As I mentioned, most of Honda vehicles come with NGK spark plugs installed with them. Some select models have Densos inside. This doesn’t correlate to VTEC or not, 1.7L or 3L and other technical specifications. here
Turn the spark plug to tighten it slightly before attempting to remove it. Use a wrench to turn the plug clockwise. Then, turn it counterclockwise to remove it. Slightly tightening the plug can help loosen the buildup around its threads. [links]
Soak the spark plug with oil again if it is still stuck.
Wait at least 10 minutes to a half hour. This will give the oil time to penetrate the buildup around the spark plug. The longer you wait the better. Most mechanics recommend leaving the penetrating oil overnight. [links]
Turn on the vehicle's engine and allow it to warm up. The heat will aid in loosening the gunk around the plug, allowing the oil to get deeper into the spark plug's thread.
Pull the cap of the spark plug wire off the spark plug. more
