more than likely if you loose spark when the engine is warm/hot its probably the tfi module

lol with the garden hose directly on it, if it was cracked then it needs replacing anyway,

i know the garden hose part is silly but my pop said it's allways a good quick way of telling if thats the problem especially if you dont have room to get near it

you can use the gt40 providing its not the old oil filled round coil.
either way if you dont use a factory or aftermarket replacement you will need to cut the wires to the coil as the gt40 coil uses different connection method to the factory coil.. |

cheer tryman thats all i needed to know, the conector plug is broken anyway doesnt clip to the coil pack properly, not sure if the gt40 i have is oil filled or not.
