    Default Coils Wanted

    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!)

    The COPs are on top of the Spark Plug.

    Instead of a single coil feeding a distrubutor cap and this the spark plug via HT leads, each plug has it's own coil

    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!
