I bought a coil today that I will fit tomorrow and will let you know. First thing I found today was the small pipe near the front of the plenum running down to the injector rail was cracked. After replacing the pipe it fired and had the long lost exhaust crackle that develops at around 3000 rpm. I was over the moon and took it for an illegal blast around the block running almost well. It soon started bucking like hell and cut out just before I got back home. After that, no start. Nothing I did could get it to fire up. So with temps here in the UK dropping to 0 deg I parked it for the day and downed a few to drown my sorrows over a bbq. Us SA people will bbq in any weather. It will be dragged to a local Alfa expert I have found if I can't resolve it tomorrow.

Thanks for all the suggestions and input.
