When changing management systems has anyone else convert to running a 'single' coil pack and leads instead of the 4 standard coil packs? If so what leads have you used? Have just been to Halfords and checked pretty much all they have and nothing really suits... ________________________________________ FOR SALE205 Turbo Technics complete and 306 Rallye Race Build breaking. |

Most people just use the coil that is fitted to a 1.6 (and a LARGE amount of other cars) and any HT leads of the correct length.________________________________________ Ex SC-6Now in a Megane R26 |

Corsa 16v leads should fit I'd imagine - they certainly fit Mi16's when used with a generic Bosch coilpack (as found on most early 90's Peugeots and various Vauxhalls etc) so can't see why they won't also fit a '6.________________________________________ 1989 Eunos Roadster // 1992 Peugeot 205 GTi-S 1.9 // 1999 Peugeot 306 HDi Meridian |

could use the XSi single wasted spark unit, would need a few of the coilpack mounting lugs trimmed off.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Funny you said that Anthony, as after looking through a catalogue this morning I ordered some Corsa GSi leads. Will check tomorrow if they are long enough, and let you all know!________________________________________ FOR SALE205 Turbo Technics complete and 306 Rallye Race Build breaking. |

pm davey boy, we when in Halfords hours before we found a set. It also depends where you mount the dizzy block to. |

Ah ok ta. Yeah, be nice to mount it to the bulkhead if possible, without getting bespoke leads made up.________________________________________ FOR SALE205 Turbo Technics complete and 306 Rallye Race Build breaking. |

Right tried the Corsa GSi leads last night and a 106/306 coil pack. Loads of length so should be able to mount the coilpack on the bulk head. Thanks for your help everyone!________________________________________ FOR SALE205 Turbo Technics complete and 306 Rallye Race Build breaking. |

would really like to convert mine over , just the thought of one of those coils going again is doing my brain in, am waiting on the faq, wouldnt the 6 engine benifit more from having leads from a more powerful car than a corsa gsi as there only a 1600? wouldnt something of a astra or cavalier gsi be better? ________________________________________ H-t-i-d ... weapon of mass cunsumption |

 I run a single coil pack and leads with my DTA. I recently bought some new leads as I developed a missfire. Came across this thread actually because my motor factor gave me 'Miratec MIL637' leads and a google search came up with this thread. They appear to be a crap brand tbh. I changed the spark plugs a couple of days previously and I believe I may have damaged something some how as it would otherwise be a coincidence for something to fail so soon after I fiddled in the same area. I don't think I put the leads on incorrectly as I think I did them one by one (I did do it in the dark though whilst suffering from fatigue). What's the order on the coil? i.e when looking at it: 4 3 1 2 Initially the missfire had gone but now it has returned awfully so my next check will be the coil pack itself. Is there a best way to test it before purchasing one? ________________________________________  |

About 30 miles away for anything you can wander around. Knowing my luck I'd pick up a duff unit  They are plentiful on TU 1.1 106's/Saxo's aren't they? I really need to ensure I've got the leads all in the correct order first. ________________________________________ |

So it bloody well is.. I looked before and couldn't see anything so assumed it wasn't on there. Dusted it down and low and behold...Thanks Mei. A search suggests the firing order is 1-3-4-2 Does 1 start on the right hand side? (flywheel side) ________________________________________ |

I must be doing something wrong here. Stood in front looking straight towards the engine - 2 4 3 1. Connected those cylinders to the corresponding coil pack number... Start the car and it won't hardly idle and I daren't keep trying it and applying throttle. ________________________________________ |
