Yes it is
I brought brand new ik27's and gapped them at 0.75mm
Mine runs, proper lumpy but the rev counter doesn't work, had to leave it alone for tonight as I got the hump lol and loosing my enthusiasm with the car which is p**sin me off as I don't give up easy. Wont be able to phone up till Monday to get any advice
I did check out before I brought the kit and there are some great reports that's why I brought it, done a bit more research tonight and seen some of the headaches, it appears that my p8 doesn't need the driver for wasted spark, is this true?, could this be why its not working??
Guess just been stressed with the whole car, since owning I've been putting right all the cock up shoddy bits other people have done, every little job so far has turned in to a major one, I am planning on a full resto but wanna enjoy the car for a bit, I am doing everything right just seem to be not having any luck
