Coil pack
 
Yet another daft question,

have the edis set up and coil pack mounted to the back of the engine.

Whats the correct order to the plugs from the coil pack.

The coil electrical connector is pointing towards the scuttle?

The numbers are on the coil next to the sockets, might need cleaning up a bit to see them? Dennis

Cheers fellas,

not far off from trying to start it, so thought i'd ask.

Can't remember seeing any identifying marks - I'll have another look.

Lets hope the leads reach?????:eek:

Thanks again.

Hi Daz

Just been out to look for one for a photoshoot ..... Too dark to find em :rolleyes: :(

It may help to point out, the coil pack is arranged in two Banks A & B

1 & 4 are on one bank
2 & 3 are on the other bank

When the the ignition module fires the coil, either bank A or bank B is fired meaning that 2 plugs are fired at the same time ( Hence the term wasted spark )


From memory. Adrians post is spot on :)

I'll take a picky for you tomorrow ;)

Cheers for the replies,

amazing what you find if u look, didn't even have to clean anything.

It was already clean, and there it was clear as daylight - never noticed it before.

Now i know the firing order, all leads fit except one - the longest??

Do they do longer leads or am I going to have to move the coil pack???????:(

i believe there are companies that will make you up some leads to any length you want

Ford ka leads fit if you have a gen 2 coil pack and they are very very long :D

i had to mount my coil pack on the bulkhead panel to lose some of the length.

Cheers Fellas,

sorted, took the longest lead into local shop and had a route around.

Mk 5/6 Fiesta - long leads (6" + longer), so using a mix of that and mondeo.
Ka ones he showed me - not long enough?

mark 22nd February 2010 12:58 PM

Maybe the motor factors i went to got confused then, but he did say they were ka

Then again i had him show me all the ford leads he had until i found the longest so maye the boxes got mixed up

Whatever they are they are about 600mm long!

At least you are sorted now
