Sandy: Unless there was an issue with the harness you used with your 1.8t coil pack conversion (e.g.
broken ground wire inside the harness), I was confident that the problem was not the coil packs.
(One might fail but not all 5).
Otherwise, your symptoms did sound like what Bob Myers went through last year. I helped Bob
diagnose that and pointed him to the G4 crank position sensor. (Which should throw a 2112 blink
code). He had the code (2112) but it was false, i.e. because the engine wouldn't start. Eventually
Bob cured his problem by changing his cam position sensor - which should have thrown a 2113
blink code - but it never did (hence the confusion and looking elsewhere).
For future reference the blink codes are listed on Scott Mockry's website at:
