well this is the second time this happens. I figured the first one went out because i thought it was old, but the other coil went out so theres something wrong. I was left on the road luckily i had a coil inside my car that i hadnt used and bam put it on and i went on my way to my mechanics house lol.. Well i want to know whats the cause of both my coils detonating like this dont know whats going on im lost.. heres some pics.. all the help would be great these coild i just put on are used i bought them through here.. the original coils had about 54,000 miles on them. My car has cams,head work 680 injectors if yall want to know oh and an aeromotive 340 stealth fuel pump... dont know if i posted this in the right section either sorry

 

car started to feel like something was stuck on the exhause it was idling high, no powere on throttle response, it back fires and after i pulled on the side of the highway it turned off and it didnt want to turn on again. it also did fry a couple of fuses but thats the least of my worries now

 

wow that's insane.. that's a first for me, ive never seen that before. i would guess there's something electronically bad in your car.. i would be of no help sorry.

i guess you could check the rom to confirm the ignition dwell isn't screwed up or anything.

 

mhh well anything can help man i went to my mechanic and he said hes never seen anything like this and for it to happen twice it is insane lol .. ill check it tomorrow or monday this sucks man im scared driving my car cause of it breaking down

 

any help???

 

Coils fully seated on spark plugs? Only guess I have is it wasn't fully sitting on it causing the spark to jump around causing the melting to potentially happen.

I'd also check to make sure that the spark plug itself was fully seated in the head.

 

yep they are, ive always changed the oil and spark plugs every 3000 miles.. ive had for a long time and this has never happened till now. Its already happened to me twice in a week with both different coils .. can it be a short circuit? i had to change the fuses twice cause of this.

 

A short def sounds possible. Especially if you keep blowing the fuses for the coils.

 

Anybody? I got my wire harness checked out and everything was fine, and so were my grounds.. I brought the car back from the shop, expecting to be fine from cleaning up all the wiring and grounds by the time I got home the car started to run like crap felt like my coils were out again. Now the shop is telling me its my tune, can that be the prob?? I've had the tune on the car since july I highly doubt that can be the prob
