    Default My VS is sputtering bad! (no spark at coil?)

    As stated my VS is spluttering bad and engine violently shudders as I try to accelerate.Thanks to the tips here,I have found that the third coil pack has no spark at all.Other two are fine.
    My question is before I change the coil pack,would no spark be due to a faulty coil pack or would faulty leads/plugs be not allowing coil pack to spark.
    Thanks.
    Darren.

    best way to check is swap the leads and plugs and see if it moves the problem to another cylinder or move the coil to a different spot and if the problem is still the same I would be looking at the inigtion control module ( the plate the coils are mounted to) or if it moves the problem then the coil is dead

    Thanks m8.Moved coil to different location and also no spark there either.Will replace coil today.
    One other question is will I do any damage to engine with a 15 min trip to autobarn.Otherwise its a 2hr round bus trip.
    Thanks.
