[s-cars] S-CAR Bucking under WOT - SOLVED-#4 Coil

[Mtgadbois@aol.com]

Additional observation:
Maybe there is something weak (poor design - excess load) with #4??   When my 
POS gave out it was for the #4 cylinder.

Then I tried spark tester test again and it  worked. The trick
is to be
patient. First time I was testing while doing  vodka shots with
my friend and
presence of "spark" was good enough for  me.

This time I counted 10 sparks on each coil. This is very
important  because
you can see how often they go and get a feel. Then I increased
gap  and one
coil missed 3 out of 10 sparks. It was on cylinder  4.


Ivan,

That Damn #4 coil.  

I'm starting to  think its not a coincidence, but every failure
I've heard of, mine included,  has been the #4 coil. That would
be the first coil I'll check if this ever  happens to me again.
