Did I ever give you the other coils I had laying around? It would be something simple to check.

Nope I didn't get that from you. Which of the two did you replace so far? I'm thinking replacing the other should be my next move. |

I am not for sure which one I replaced. I got a spare coil minus the wiring and just replaced the one that I could see was arcing. Give me a few minutes to dig them out of their hiding place and I will snap some pics or something. |

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread
The first is a pic of where it was arcing.
The second is a pic of what I have left. It doesnt mean that the missing one is the one I replaced though.

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread
Thanks for the info. Jeremy Hassler (armthelaser) and his wife Stacy were nice enough to donate a new coil pack to the project along with a few other misc. things the Laser has been needing. Lets hope this clears up the high-boost misfire issue so I can be at full power this weekend at the DB dyno-day!

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread
Returned front brake rotors for $40 and I only paid $30, so I'll be adding that $10 to my fund.

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread
The stock exhaust housing and o2 housing should be sold this week at Applebees and I hear rumors of the stock cat being worth $80 at the recyclers.

Just to add to the cheapness of this project I gave up on cutting all the way through the pipe to get the tip off and just bent and broke off the final inch of metal.

I do appreciate that, it really adds a little rusty jagged flare to the rear! LOL |

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread

That bum should keep his lips off my pipe unless he wants to get infected.

Hey, at least now you don't have to worry about some hobo stealing your cat.

Re: Laser's $100 Project Thread
The tip went limp once I got a bigger tool to hack with.
