fla 9 Posted August 14, 2007 Strange one this - just doing some checks on the car and whilst running, there is a sparking type of noise every so often, similar to when you test a plug. Never noticed it before, but i would have assumed that if it were the spark plug it would be continuous? I cant see anything tbh. Any ideas? Maybe related to the injectors? Its only on the left hand side of the engine near to the fpr and fule feed/return pipes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Have you got a coil pack on your vr? I assume it's probably that breaking down. Wait till it's getting dark and start it up, you'll probably see arcs jumping somewhere on the ignition system. Try cleaning the area and spraying it with wd40, the coilpacks can be repaired...

fla 9 Posted August 15, 2007 THe thing is the noise is on the other side of the block. Might be worth checking the coilpack anyway though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colley 0 Posted August 15, 2007 Try looking at the leads connecting to the spark plugs, i had this on one of my leads, the electric wasnt running down to the plug and earthing on the block. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted August 16, 2007 Yep, good point. Also worth checking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
