Need at least 1 coil for the V8, would ideally like to buy three or more if anyone has one for sale?
Car is currently abandoned away from home and am quite keen to retrieve it!
It has a least number 4 out (as this registered on the comp as a misfire according to the RAC!)
I hope you find some soon mate, so you can get back on the road.
Regards

The COPs are on top of the Spark Plug.Quote:

Thanks for the info, does anyone have any idea of price on these?
Cheers
Think I have sorted some:
Have two coming, hopefully tomorrow from:
http://www.usautomotive.co.uk/
They had some in stock and are £29.99 each.
if you are desperate I have some (5 or 6) non oem Granatelli blaster COPS in my garage you can borrow to get you going. If you ever come up London way you're elcome to collect.
Otherwise I did recently see these:

and

Thanks for the info and offer of assistance!
I am pretty much stranded so I am hoping the two will come tomorrow and I go down to the car which is about 3 miles away and swap it over,
Is it difficult?
I am guessing it is one screw/bolt and then pretty much pulls out?
Assuming nothing much is in the way which it might well be! :o

I bought coils from these people and they are good quality parts posted to my location in 3 days - recomended.

The lady on the phone new exactly what I was talking about even when I mentioned the MG and they came extremely quick so a big thumbs up from me!
The local MG garage took a while to cotton on initially offering me a single coil pack for £140 (when I say 1, in that they thought the car only had one) and then on investigating deciding that they couldnt supply this part at all, have they no imagination!?
Anyhoo, went back the car tool kit in hand and swapped over the number 4 coil, which incidently is probably one of the easiest to do, only had to unscrew the fuel rail mount to get a little more room, but no need to remove anything.
Got it in and car fired up, was a bit wobbly but then was fine, engine light went out too and it is running fine again.
Got a spare now too!
Tested the other 7 and they are all okay.
Thanks for all the replies on here.
Glad it's all sorted
Didnt go down well with the missus, you know what they are like say it had a problem and as far as they are concerned it needed a new enigne :(
Mind you, it does have a few other problems yet :ash
