When the electroid wears out. If they are original, replace them and the wires., The coils should be fine

A REPAIR MANUAL SPECIFIC TO YOU VEHICLE WOULD SERVE YOU WELL!

NOT ONLY WILL IT TELL YOU WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE, IT WILL ALSO TELL YOU WHEN IN THE SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SECTION

SOME THINGS ARE SIMPLE, OTHERS MORE INVOLVED, THE MANUAL CAN TALK YOU THRU REPAIRS

THESE MANUALS ARE THE WAY I GOT STARTED DOING MY OWN REPAIRS, AND I STILL USE THEM, DOING MINE AND DOING STUFF FOR OTHERS.

I REALLY LIKE THE STEP BY STEPS, AS THEY KEEP ME FROM WASTING TIME, JUST "WINGING IT". IT IS ALSO HELPFUL WHEN IT COMES TO TORQUING BOLTS AND THE CORRECT ORDER IN DOING SO. TOO TIGHT--THINGS BREAK, TOO LOOSE---STUFF BACKS OUT AND FALLS APART.

THIS WILL BE A WELL SPENT $30

KEEP US POSTED ON HOW THINGS ARE GOING
