Riaz, I have a multimeter too, and the coil packs from my car if you need to swap in some working ones.

Hello All, the problem that RiaZ is trying to sort is my Skyline. It used to have a random miss and now it just sounds like a WRX and shudders quite badly.

vspec cos i know where you live,

i will pop round on the weekend after calling you first and then come borrow stuff,

its alittle far for the overgrown minus 2 wheels of grip wrx to come to your place.

I can return them the same day also if you want.

To be fair to WRX owners not only would my car be "overgrown and minus 2 wheels of grip" but would be FAR slower... In its current state!

BTW V-Spec thanks for the reply. Very much appreciated

Hey All,

In line with Riaz needing a multi meter (to help me sort out my coil packs) I have just spent the last 20 minutes searching on how to check faulty coil packs, although i found plenty of quick guides there was nothing very comprehensive. Any one with advice for me? Hopefully i am not wasting anyones time.

Cheers

Hi Tim, No easy way to check with a multimeter, best way is to take a working one and swap it in. Series II coil-packs are different than series I as they have the igniter inbuilt.

Paul,

Thanks for the advice. As a thread that i fianlly found Riaz and i did it the old fashioned way. That is removed the wiring to the pack and listened to the engine. Found cylinder 1 or 6 (Closest cylinder to driver) depending which way they are counted from had a dodgy clip. When firmly put in i developed a 6th cylinder!

Thanks for all your help!

No worries, that's what I told Riaz to do, glad it was a simple fix:D
