Long story cut short.Bought a VZ with known very rough idling.Its on LPG so thought it was an lpg problem
Rang mechanic and he said he could almost guarantee it would be one of the coil packs gone bad.
So I bought a coil pack from wreckers with idea of testing each one separately
As the manifold has to come off I came up with the idea of disconnecting coil packs one at a time to find the faulty one to save time as you did in the old days
HOWEVER......when I tried to start the car on five coils it wouldn't start and only clicked.
I reconnected the plug but it still wont start. It still only clicks. If I turn the headlights on the alarm tries to sound.
I then disconnected the battery for two hours in the hope that it would reset itself
Unfortunately it still just clicks... click click click.....and wont turn over.
When I turn the ignition on but dont try to start it it displays system check ....all good
What have I stuffed up and how do I rectify this??? Someone please help
Its stuck in my driveway and cant move it!!!!!!!:lock:
