    Mine is a 97 VS S2 and I had to do the coil packs so yours will be ready for a new set. Try get some out of a VT-VX-VY commy as they are way better. $60 each....What you moaning about!!

    The cheap arse way to repair them(if the outer case is cracked/cracking,is to buy a tube of Araldite(or any Epoxy like that),and liberally coat the coilpacks with that,as it will stop the spark earthing out thru the cracks,kept my car going until i could afford new coilpacks

    no mate just get the one you need, some places tell you that they only come in packs but there full of it, if you find a good auto elec you will get them singly, Hope this helps
