Is the igniter the same as the coil? Also in looking for the coil was told there are two types of igniters for the 89 Land cruiser, is that true? If so how do I tell which one? Is it fairly easy to replace, if so how. Also, the car has been sitting for about 8 months. What steps do I need to take to get it back up and going assuming I can replace the igniter (if the above is correct)?

our chart only shows one igniter but there may be a difference in production dates.
