> so i wanted to know > if there are any differences in the coils. You're probably better off with an original. In fact, I'll bet the old one you are running is fine. I know that the common "blue" coils are made in Mexico and in Brazil. I had a Mexican blue coil that lasted all of about 3k miles before crapping out (the primary coil opened). FWIW: On the Mexican, when I shook it I could feel the oil inside sloshing around. A Brazilian blue that I have does not slosh. And it's still good. So is the original black coil I pulled recently from a junkyard squareback to replace that newer Mexican coil. -Mark Fuhriman ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
