My Poorly Tuscan

[tuscanator]

Got my Tuscan back a couple of weeks ago and whilst the weather was nice took it away for the weekend. All was fine and dandy onthe way there even hat a bit of a thrash with a motorbike which was nice. The way back was a different story. Car sounded chuggy and hesitant on acceleration, seems to be misfiring or somet? Dont suppose anyone can give me a bit of advice please (Am off to cyprus tomorrow).

Probably your coil pack and HT leads. About 250 quid to fix.

i had this 2 weeks ago, replaced coil pack myself - £123 from vauxhall dealer - sorted

Thanks, I was starting to panic about having to hand over loads of cash!!!! Dont suppose that price would be for a garage to sort would it? Bit of a lame ass when it comes to DIY!!!

Was this for a standard Tuscan (ie non S) or does it not make any difference? Do you have the part number as well please?

it was on my T350, its highly likely that it will be the same part as the engines are almost identical. its a vauxhall part, made by bosche and the part number is 0221503002.

you might want to call your dealer and double check to make sure its the same

remove airbox and it takes 5 minutes and one 5mm allen key to change over.

write down the order the plugs come off in, as the numbers on the rear of the coil pack is the firing order for a V6 vauxhall.
