Coil replacement

[kjphilippona]

My coil is just a big clump of rust, i decided to replace it with one from Rock Auto, it was supposed to fit (KEM). First thing i noticed it was about 1/3 the size of the one on my car now. The clamp will not close down enough and allow the mounting bolts to attach to the wheel well. Where can i get one that i will be sure will fit :disappoin

I picked up a Bosch coil at O'Reilly Auto Parts a couple of years ago. Works fine...

To give Kudos to Rock Auto, it turned out that the wrong coil was packaged at the warehouse and they refunded me all cost's.

Avoid KEM like the plague.

Had many a bad experience with them, especially electrical parts.

Fuel pumps, ignition modules and throttle position sensors were the 3 things I wound up replacing at least once within 6 mos of initial install.

Swore off them for good after the 2nd TPS.
