hi all,new in here but have a question i hope some 1 can answer.
I have a vn v6s1 motor in my hilux, driving home from work the other day and the thing started to miss on acceleration and was struggling to get any power out of it when you put your foot down, any way a mechanic told me it was my coil pack going so i replaced that, now the motor kicks over it is getting fuel but don't seem to be getting any spark as when i take my plugs out they are covered in fuel can anyone help.:bang:
thanks

One, try cleaning the plugs.
Get a lighter (one of those little ones that burns ilke a small oxy torch is great for this) and burn at the end of the plug. Then scratch the surface slightly with a bit of sand paper.

Throw them back in, and try to start the car.
If it fails, pull the plugs repeat above procedure, and check all of the wiring to the new coil pack, and that spark is in the correct order.
