Anyone have an extra ignition coil laying around for a 91 3000GT??? I’m 99% sure one of the 3 coils is bad because I have no spark coming off the plug, but the plug is good on another wire, and the wire is good on a different coil. But the coils are $60 each so I’d rather make sure before I go spending money on this thing.

the inspection is up on it and there is a tail light out but I’m fine with that. Maybe you could take a quick look when you pick it up and tell me what you think???

O, btw. If there is no spark off the Coil, it could also be the PTU. I have both.

I wouldn’t think all 3 coils would be dead, the PTU controls the coils. It’s fairly common to go bad.

the other 2 coils are good. If I take the wires off I have a ton of arcing. But on the 3rd coil (all the way forward) I can take the wires off and touch the coil and it barely shocks me. Let me know when you want to borrow it… I just took the 3000 off the trailer today so its empty.
