Now replace those other 2 old coils so we don’t have another addition to this post in six months

😀

If you buy another Volvo those two old ones become valuable spares!

If coils (or cash) would grow on trees I definately would!
Decided to determine what the Meantime Between Failure is by keeping those two coils in for now.
If another one fails I will replace both, just trying to save up for a good angle gear at the same time.
