Darkhorsepower 4 Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 I'm restoring a 1992 mk3 VR6 Golf AAA OBD1 and replaced the original ignition coil due to a flat spot at 2000 - 2200 RPM. I have suddenly noticed a really annoying "ticking" sound coming from behind the bulkhead. Using a stethoscope (!) I have realised the ticking is actually coming from the (new) replacement ignition coil. Can anyone tell me if this is a fault with : 1. the coil 2. the ignition lead 3. the earth ground connection I have a braid strap from the body to the engine block. Should I also use a braid strap from the 1 (not 15) terminal to the body? I've checked the resistance according to Bentley's and it's all good. Any advice gratefully received !! Thanks a lot Mark Link to post Share on other sites
