mbayley77 0 Posted May 16, 2006 How do i test a coil? I have just put in my new gti-6 lump and made up a distributor drive (gorgeous mbayley design ) but i have no spark. It was running fine before i did the engine transplant. I have power to the coil. I have power to the module. I have tried a second ignition amp but no change. Only thing i can think of is that the coil has gone buggered. Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martin@PRD 0 Posted May 16, 2006 Hi mark, Another thing to try is whether you are getting a tigger signal from the dizzy, try another dizzy and cheak connections from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Martin@PRD 0 Posted May 16, 2006 Need to eliminate the possible problems to the coil first, cheek for power, earth and trigger at coil multi plug if all is good the coil is faulty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
