coil pack harness/exhaust manifold gasket

[knore]

Hey guys,

One of the wires going into coil pack number 1 has come out of the plug, effectively giving me 5 cylinders

how the hell do i get the yellow bit of the plug out so i can rewire it into it?

or where do i get a new plug/harness?

And i seem to have blown my exhaust manifold gasket

I know beau had this problem, whats it cost to get done, and whats the gasket price itself?

ive had a great few days

cheers

i thought i had a receipt around here but i've misplaced it for now.

Inlet and exh manifold gasket will set you back $185 together. That price was from Metro Nissan @ Windsor.

I would assume the exh gasket to be more expensive.

u can crimp some spade connectors onto the wiring and connect them up that way.

my rb25 seems to have that arrangement for one of the coils.. if u like i can take photos.

nissan apparently has plugs though..

Yeh i was thinking that, but ide rather do it properly

is there anyway of pulling the plugs apart to reuse them?

even if i buy new ones i dont know how to get them open to solder/crimp the wires in etc

guess ill check the plug properly and see if there is a code on it somewhere

IIRC, the cost of the crimping tool is lots...

so u need a special tool? :Oops:

maybe ill just find another coil pack harness, couldnt be too much i guess

I had to do that, as I did exactly what knore did and buggered a plug

get a pin or needle and feed it into the front of the plug. this will pop the little barb down and allow you to remove the end from the plug. Just resolder the wire to it and push it back in.

cheers for the replies,

i just swapped a mates coil pack harness to use for a few days

i tried to reuse the plug but it was fairly brittle/coroded and ended up cracking to pieces pretty much, so off to nissan to see if i can get new plugs, that or i call zoom/alljap and see what a 2nd hand harness is worth

i managed to get a complete wiring harness for an RB25DET, uncut for $50

I also had a problem with coil pack plugs

[knore]

whered you get that from?

im hoping a new coil pack harness from nissan isnt heartattack priced :Oops:

oh yeh, the leak turned out to just be the gasket from dump pipe to frontpipe, was leaking pretty bad, blew a whole section of gasket out, hence the noise was pretty loud.

is a hell of alot easier and cheaper to fix than the manifold gasket!

Knore stop copying me, I had my manifold leak too

[knore]

new coil pack harness is $200!!
