Hello, today I replaced the spark plugs, coil packs and a fuel filter on my 95 GTST, and now, I’m getting a spin but no fire. The plugs were pregapped out of the box at a 0.835 so I just went with that number, I’m not sure what is actually the right number since my car is 100% stock, and after googling it, I get conflicting gap numbers people recommend. When I replaced the coil packs with brand new ones, the coil pack harness clips were pretty much disintegrating when I trying to plug them back in. (Pain the the ass to get them back in too) So I just ordered a new harness today, assuming that could be somewhere to start. Anyone have an idea on where to start? Is the gap set correctly? Thanks in advance.

So I just took everything apart and inspected the coil pack harness, everything was plugged in but I didn’t see a ground/earth attached to the harness? Just plugs into the coil pack and a plug to the loom. So I took the plugs out of the packs and #3 plug crumbled into my hand, to the point where it was just 3 prongs haha I ordered another harness lastnight though. So I guess I’m gonna have to wait till the new harness is in.

That will definitely be part of your problem. Did you pull any plugs after cranking to see if they were wet?

Presumably car was running before attempting to do any of this? It's the loom by the sound of things, given new spark plugs, new coilpacks and new loom... that's some decent troubleshooting. Yes there could easily be fuel on them depending how much cranking you attempted to do to get it to start again which can mess things up.

That said, by the time the loom arrives probably will have evaporated away 😛

      This piece is obscenely discontinued. I honestly hate the frameless window design because the rubber gets stressed and the guides as well every time you open and close the door.

      I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3

      I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

      They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...
