can some cleaver forum member please explain how we remove the coils on the AM Vantage v8 in order to get to the spark plugs? I managed to locate them under the plastic cover but not sure how to remove them?

 

There is a torx bolt, not sure of the size at the moment, take it out then unplug the coil. Becareful not the lose the spacer under the coil that the bolt goes through. The bolt may not come out all the way because of the spacer, but it should come lose the be able to remove the coil. Then just lift the coil out, or pull, it may be tight.

 

Thanks for this, when i look at the coil I find what appears to be a foam rubber type spacer between coil and cyl/head is the bolt under that foam?

 

Let me try and snag a picture of one. So it will make sense when your looking at it.

 

That will be a great help thanks, I have the AM factory manual but as alay man its not clear to me or I can find the correct page?
