Coil Pack Testing

[MAGP]

So you want dodgy coils to test?

1 or 2 would be handy to test a pattern, a good coils will produce a spark upto 40.0 - 42.0mm and the only bad one i have will do 10.5mm, so atm the pattern is a dodgy coil will be 1/4 of a good coil.

Well I think mine is totally dead but you are welcome to it.

So was elbow deep in the speedway car engine bay today and noticed this...



No symptoms at all, over ten years of reliable and hard use, pressure washed after every meeting...
So these will be getting swapped, you want these for testing? What do I replace them with?

[slewinson]

That has more crack than Joan Kirner's undies...

That is one of the worst images I'd never want to see ! I hope I sleep tonight

ouch, for msd id rather a working unit to compair. The one on the right might be ok? For what to buy these ones had the largest spark gap and were also the cheapest, but dont know about longevity, so far 2 weeks in my car ok.

As far as I can dig out, that is a Delphi branded coil.


Oh btw I finally got my AC delco L67 coils from Summit. Only took 3 months lol, still one part on back order.

2 are the as expected Mexican made genuine items but one is oddly made in the USA? I never seen one made there before.

Its a delphi part number but CAD brand some aftermarket presumably Chinese made, looks nothing like the genuine Delphi coil I have here. Is that the blue bottom ones you got?

[vlad01]

Yes I got the blue bottom ones.
