I would say that is a little high for the coil, one plug and a pcv valve. How much labor did they quote you? Also, which coil is it?

just had the same problem a few weeks ago. coming back from a trip, blinking check engine light and engine shaking especially when you had to give it a little gas. went to autozone and had it scanned. code p0104 came up, indicating #4 coil. only advance auto parts had the coil in stock, $50. it was packaged under gp sorenson brand, but was actually a motorcraft unit inside. took the old coil out, it had antifreeze on it from the hose connection above. replaced coil, tightened hose connection above, about 1 hr of work and all has been fine since. if i can do it in one hour, i cant see why a mechanic would charge more than 1 hours worth. to me $150 tops for parts and labor would be fair for changine out coil and pcv valve.
