All was going well until we tried to fire the engine into life and was greeted by lots of coughing and spluttering.
On closer inspection after the comments above, one bank of the coilpack has cracked and started to distort, just bought a new one and it all magically came to life
Good stuff!!!their not the most robust of items either and bloody electronics can break at any time.
There's a way of measuring the resistances between each post on the coilpack but even this is not infallible as it told me my Corsa b coilpack was fine yet the car missed when hot.I put another on and job jobbed,hasn't missed a beat since.
