BMW Coil help

Recommended Posts

Ok I either need to replace my coil type and the end of the coil led or replace existing coil with a harder to find one.

 

What do I do, it has a male connection inside the coil connection, I tried a spare electronic coil and it never had enough grunt to run it so i guess these things pack a punch :)

Why do I think the coil is gone, it starts to miss badly with average to high throttle use once it gets to operating temperature.

 

I can drive to work and back each day without a miss but if i try to go anywhere else after it misses.

 

Oh its a E34 NZ new 1989 but the only coil that matches is a e28 M5 or 535i

these coils are usually pretty good , you checked inside distributor cap ? pretty sure these can corode or fill with oil and do weird stuff . if it is the coil some mercedes have one the same - is there a pick-a-part down there ?
