accel coil help!!!

g19n87r · February 27th, 2010, 02:24 PM

So I ordered an accel coil and today when it came the coil boots were different so was the mounting bolt pattern and as for the connector they were both 4 pins but are a different shape. I ordered it from parts train and when I called them they assured me it is the correct part but im sorry to say there dumb. Any body ran into this same problem and made it work?suggestions?

g19n87r · February 27th, 2010, 03:47 PM

well who else makes an aftermarket coil or am I better of with a motorcraft

ESG-642T · February 27th, 2010, 03:53 PM

Performance Distributors - High Performance and Racing Ignition Systems

However even people with 450+ hp cars are still using OEM coils.

g19n87r · February 27th, 2010, 03:59 PM

has anyone used a screamng demon or would you suggest motorcraft

9986paulk · February 27th, 2010, 04:23 PM

Screamin Demon is good. I have one. I wish I'd have just kept the money though and left the stock one on. I really don't know if it did anything or not.

g19n87r · February 27th, 2010, 04:27 PM

well I just returned the accel and when there open on monday there gunna hear it from me along with everybody else who advertises it as fitting all 99-04s. I ordered the screaming demon and got a couple days worth of installs got a cai programmer mac lts w off road h pipe flowmaster 40s h.i.d.s the screaming demon coil and a throttle body spacer im sure ill be askin for somethin about the exhaust

ESG-642T · February 27th, 2010, 05:44 PM

TB spacer - - - Junk

Coil - - - should have saved the 100$ really

Codeman · February 27th, 2010, 09:30 PM

I agree, the coil is fine if your stock one is shot, but i don't know how much ford charges for a replacement, and the tb spacer wont add really anything sorry to say. if you can still return the spacer i would try. and spend the 70 elsewhere
