Well my petrol light was on as i was really really low on petrol and i could feel the car kind of juddering as though it was gonna cut out just as I got onto the petrol station forecourt.
Anyway, put £20 of petrol in, started up the car and a light came on the dash and started to flicker on and off.
I started to drive it and immeadiately noticed it sounded like an impreza and lacked power. Straight away I thought it was a coil.
But I've just got home and turned the ignition off, started it up and it idled fine. Not lumpy. Could it have been a small glitch or if I drive it for more than 1 minute the problem will come back again?
I'm going to take it out in 2 mins to pickup my gf from work.
Am I ok to drive it if a coil definately has gone? I need to get to work 2moro which is 15 miles and see if I can get a hold of a coil and replace it at work.
What's the best way to find out which coil has gone? I hope the inlet mani doesn't have to come off?
Ta,
Chris
