[s-cars] 1.8 Coil Conversion Kit & P/S Pump ... best sources?

[David Forgie]

Randy: You really need to get that coil fixed. It was weak when I drove your car in the summer of 2006.  I'm not surprized it failed. 

Forget dealer prices on a stock coil.  Call VM Autohaus (Kris) in Burnaby about $120 last time I checked or go through FAP99:

$127.68

or Kingsborne Wire Werks:

OR get the Apikol plug and play 1.8 coil pack kit for $399 (20 minutes hard labour during the conversion)

Replacement coils, with built-in POSs, are about $30.

And no, I don't get a penny for any of these endorsements.

Bottomline:  Pick one and do it. You have been limping on that dying coil too long.
