    ok, let me set the scene...after months of problems the vr6 was finally running fonr about 6 weeks ago, except for a really bad gearbxo whine. as the tax was about to run out i thought i'll take it off the road and get my spare gearbox rebuilt...didn't wanna have the current one implode on me.

    anyways, as i say it was working great, engine wise at least.

    however, went to start it the other day, started fine (although a little clattery, but thats to be expected if its not been started in a while)...ideled fine for a few mins, then, all of a sudden it started misfiring really badly. it then cut out and won't restart. grrrr!

    a mate disconnected the leads from the coilpack and there was very little, if any, spark there. he also had plugged a multimeter into the wiring harness that connects to the coilpack and didn't appear to be getting a reading.

    anyone had anything similar? any ideas?

    No ideas mate about the engine, but hoping to have the box ready for the weekend mate.
    Will have a new selector mech on it, diff seals, input shaft seal and selector levers inside. Fingers crossed mate :p
