KV6 misfire and then .....

noily · 10th February 2017, 23:33

Dear fellows I need a little assistance please. My old Cowley 75 that I saved from going to the scrap man developed a misfire on No2 which cleared and then came back but then the coil pack failed shown by ODB scanner, so (I should have done this as a matter of course when I done the oil etc) I went to check out the plug and pack. To my horror the coil pack plug just fell to pieces when I tried to remove it and I was left with 3 loose wires, someone had been there before me with the silicon gun oh cr*p what a mess - does anyone have a wiring diagram of the coil pack plug so I can make up a "fix" -Older type coil pack with the metal pull up release 3 wire connection.
I have scoured my local scrap yards to cut off a plug but to no avail and a new loom is out of the question. Please help me keep the old girl going strong

I may have an old loom somewhere which i can cut a plug off for you, if wont be #2 as i think that one has already gone to repair another car.

I'll check this morning when I'm in MK and let you know.

HI Andy.
if you get stuck I am sure I still have this loom in my shed somewhere but would need to check first, if it would be of any use to you let me know, or any part of it Arctic.
