I can tell my coil packs are going bad and im also getting prepped for dyno tuning. So its time to replace the ignition system. I already have e3 plugs.

Im going to purchase some 9mm wires off latemodelrestoration.com.

But here is the problem. I cant choose between the coil packs.


The Accel
Accel Super EDIS Coil Pack (96-98 GT/Cobra) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!

The MSD
MSD 4.6L Coil Pack (96-98) at AmericanMuscle.com - Free Shipping!

Which is better?

I took the ebay advice and got them at 39.99 a piece...which was awsome. I went with MSD becuase i just want a brand I trust.

Could my coil packs going bad cause me to smell some gas in my oil? and my car running kind of rough?

Heres the Link--

MSD Blaster 1995-1998 Ford 4.6L V8 DIS Coil Pack #8241:eBay Motors (item 390114546727 end time Dec-04-09 12:08:44 PST)


Damnit they droped the price right after i bought them. grr... But yea guys hit them up.

Still waiting for them in the mail. A few people in my mustang club said that they felt a smoother idle and increased power. Some say there was no differance. I think what really matters is how much is done to the car. The more stock your car is the less you will feel. Or atlest thats the trend I've seen so far.

But for that price just grab a set and see if it does or dosnt change anything. I mean $70 for both is a awesome deal!

Installed them today. They fired up just fine and I felt a nice differance. Cant drive hard as my car needs a tune badly. But It cruised around really well. They came in black instead of red... but besides that they were great.

Did have a little trouble with a few wires attaching them to the coilpacks. But i think its just cause there fresh wires.

I havnt had a problem with mine. Still runnin smooth.

The ford racing wires seem to be doing good =)
I would recommend them

Yea there refurbished. I knew that when I bought them. I dont have an issue with refurbished parts....the way i see it is that they did have a problem and now there fixed...so nothings going to go wrong.

They came in black instead of red but besides that they were great. Came with all the MSD paperwork and stuff.
