eupho Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 I am suffering with erratic running, more noticeable under load. I have just been under the bonnet in the dark and clearly there is a lot of arcing around the coil pack. Can it be removed for inspection. Are there any precautions to take? Is there a nack to removing the old plug leads...they are buried so deep in the head.Thanks in anticipation of advice.Tom Quote
mk2vr6 Posted February 8, 2008 Report Posted February 8, 2008 No need to remove the leads from the plugs unless your replaceing them? the coil pack is held in place by four bolts, fairly easy to get at! just dont drop them once they are loose! inormally its the isulation around the towers thats cracks up! either replace the coil pack or stick it in the oven and dry it out then reseal it with epoxy resin if you have to remove the leads from the head you'll need the tool to remove the leads from the depth of the head! it's available at all good VW dealers /after market parts shop / snapon dealers.....
