My car just must really hate me, I degreased the engine for rego last week and after letting the car sit for a couple days it doesnt want to start. I checked for spark and none at all. When I washed it i covered the dizzy and coil with some plastic but must not have worked. Im going to have to replace the coil but is there any upgraded coils other than stock replacement Bosch units??

Cheers, Justin

Reasonably sure you can get an MSD (brand) coil for upgraded standard ignition systems. Im probably wrong though. Have a look at the VPW catalogue online. www.vpw.com.au

The car came from NSW and was dropped off in VIC,He was told it would need two tyers for a rwc.
It had rips in the seat,Blinkers were f**k,No bolts in the manifold,Only one bolt holding the gear box in,Number plate lights missing,Shockers were f**k,Both ball joints needed to be replaced. Broke down 30 seconds after driving it. Then find out from VIC roads its been ridden off befor. Couldnt get the car going untill his mechanic found out the ECU was f**k because it had been driven into a dam or a lake.
Your telling me none of this stuff crossed this guys mind to tell the buyer befor he dropped it off in VIC? Rip off C***,Thats all there is to it.
LOL at young whiners,Im sure you would feel the same way champ
