    Sounds like it, to be sure have the car running and remove a coilpack at a time. You will hear the car idle funny put it back in and than the next until you find the one causing you troubles...

    Has to be worth a try.

    It errr ... doesn't work I've tried. Might work when you start getting hairline cracks but really once its got a few you have to bin it.

    Mind you! It does misfire a little bit less with epoxy, surprising really.

    A mate of mine did it on his Corrado but maybe he was lucky. I ran for months like that.

    Yeah he must have caught it early, mine has 6 cracks in it and well ... has had it. When I got it, it had silicone all over the coil-pack, like that did any good to it. I bit the bullet and just got another off Ebay recently for $250.
