Agree with the above - mine failed this week after intermittent misfires.If you can pull over while it is misfiring you can also disconnect the coils one by one. If it doesnt make a difference to the running of your engine then thats your faulty coil. ________________________________________ 1997 Black GTi6smithers205 at hotmail.com |

Well, to be fair it could either be a coil or a plug, but in my experience it will be the coil.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

I was only going by what you posted at the top that its done it about 4 times and wen you floored it in second. If its doing it all the time and you have some plugs then change them 1st. After that i would look at someone breaking a 6 on here and get some known working ones ________________________________________ cherry p1.....SOLD (regreting this)blaze p2.....why did i buy this SOLD Black p3 |

He means whichever coilpack is faulty, the plug for that coil will be a different colour.________________________________________ '90 1.6 205 GTi, '98 306 GTi-6 |
