intermittans spark, poor spark Delco EST coil

[Bt Doctur]

Just repaired a volvo v8 with a no run condition. The coil laminations got corroded and rusted and expanded to destroy the coil. The plugs would not fit correctly. Standard products make a replacement coil for $26 or there abouts. Grind and remove the rivets and attach the bracket to the new coil with 8-32 bolts and nuts, re-install and your running.

I hate the open frame coils for that reason. once the laminations start to separate, the magnetic field gauss is reduced
