Hello all
Ive got a MY00 Uk turbo and recently I've been getting ignition interferance on the radio. In the good old days you would just strap a suppressor across the points in the distributor! but I haven't a clue how it's done on this engine. Is all the suppression done in the HT leads or is there something in the coil pack?
Any advice would be very welcome as it's driving me mad!
Cheers.
Craig.

it drove me up the wall too. It was a clicking on the radio and it would 'speed up and slow down' in relation to the engine speed. It was all down to an HT lead starting to break down. Apparently they can do this but still deliver a spark where you want them to. One new set of HT leads later and no clicking.

Thanks for that, new set of leads it is then.
Cheers.

Wont an earthing mod help with this as well. Certainly helps with the reception.
