:p


I don't reckon 2k for a vt on 4 cylinders is accordingly priced either...

I know youve said it's not but it MUST be coil or DFI. DFI triggers coil, coil fires and sends spark to 2 cylinders at same time.

If it was just 1 cylinder or 3 then it could only be DFI, but being 2 it must be coil or connection between DFI and coil. Try cleading the spade terminals of the DFI.

If its a dud DFI, swapping coils around wont change anything. If it's a dud coil, changing the coild around will mean a different pair of cylinders loses spark.

Agreed, It can't be anything else only the Dfi, Coil Packs, Spark plug leads and Spark plugs create the spark, could check the DFI plug and wiring.
