I had a coil go a few days ago. This coil happened to be on number 3 cylinder.
I replaced this coil with a champion but as I'd been swapping the coils around to detect the dodgy one the new one went on number 1 cylinder.
Are you still with me?
So I had another old Sagem coil on number 3 cylinder. The car was running fine for a few miles and the Engine Warning Light even cleared itself. But just before I got home The engine warning light started to flash rapidly and it was continuously beeping and throwing up "Engine Failure"
Lo and behold the coil on number 3 cylinder has gone again. Could this be coincidence, as both the duff coils are old Sagems, or could there be an underlying cause as to why they both packed up whilst on this particular cylinder?
