Spark Plugs Coils

Postby rsg » Sat Jun 04, 2005 12:09 am

Hello guys,

I've got a question regarding my front spark plug coils.

I've still got the '95 GR Tip - decided to keep it as it's gettin more and more dificult to import cars into SA as they keep putting up the Import tax in the neighbouring countries and love to charge what they feel - If they think you paid more than what your import papers say for a car - they charge you more on duties because they can!

Anyway I found my car has a miss and when I checked the spark plugs, the left and middle coils seem to be leaking sparks. I checked them and they don't appear cracked or anything but it could be a small crack...? If you have a close look you see sparks escaping from non-entry points on the coils and when you see them leak, your hear a miss.

Could this just be dirt or faulty wires, or could they actually be cracked? I'll be looking to get those Magnecor wires if thats the problem, but where could I get plug coils?

Hope someone will be able to give me some help.

BTW - You guys were right as usual about the chip - the c**t tried to do me in for when I went to check the car else where - the power was still the same as before the chip. Nice that Dastek has a policy on full refunds! I've basically returned the car to stock except the exhaust until I have it running as it should be - now back to square one - 56kw on the wheels...

Can anyone at least let me know where I could source some spark plug coils?
