When mine shot a coilpack it sounded and still love this description from someone else (like a Retarded Subaru)
 :grin:

If you leave the engine running and split the coilpack harness from the coilpack the engine note should drop on each one - if it doesn't drop on one its buggered

Yeah but only the wiring off the coilpack not the coilpack itself  :shocked:
