I have some old ones from a head I bought, if no-one have for sale then contact me and we can make a plan, maybe borrow a couple ( don't know the condition of the full set) until you have confirmed that you have a dead pack and then replace with new? search on forum JTEC bought some from overseas I think at a reduced price , some reason I think that the vk45 uses the same coil pack.

I discovered a couple of incorrect coil packs on my car. They look similar and have similar spec but the shaft on the one type doesn't reach fully to the spark plug and doesn't seal properly at the tappet cover.
I modded them to fit by trimming the lug carefully but then discovered that they also touch the tappet cover so had to swap the location around to fit one at the recessed part of the tappet cover under the intake, and the second one needed another minor fabrication to move the lug a few degrees to make it fit at a different angle and miss the tappet cover

So, shorter version of the story, be careful what you buy

Good point spike! Also had one odd coil in mine before I replaced them.

Thankfully the ones I bought were an exact replica and worked a charm. :thumbup:
