Coil upgrade???

[fahrvergnugen at cox.net (David Utley)]

David,

  There is no fool-proof way to test a coil.  If it checks-out, it could
still be bad.  Normally, it will only fail to function once it gets hot.
But even then, you should be able to check it on the vehicle.  Bentley tells
you to check resistances between the 3 different terminals, you'll need to
refer there for the values you need.

Sorry to come in on this late, been very busy.

OK so I'm going to be pulling the coil off to swap it out or test it and I
start thinking ... can we upgrade to a better coil?  Does MSD make one for
it?

What is Chuck running in his MS car?  I know he's got a little red box and a
coil, but honestly I've never really messed with spark that much...(change
the plugs and dizzy cap) 8-) 


So now I'm wondering what are my options.  I believe my no start issues are
ignition related and both my A2 Jetta's seem lacking in spark.

BTW priced coils at 3 different parts stores today (advance auto, o'reilly
and autozone) interesting.... advance auto 54, o'reilly 66 and autozone
coming in last at 99.  Those were for "stock" replacements (Duralast,
Borg-Warner and???)

Shoot me up I'm here. 8-)
David
