Dta S40 Ecu/ 1.8 Xu7 Coil Pack

Hi,

 

Wonding will the 1.8 XU7 coil pack work with a S40 DTA ecu?

[Anthony 1,000]

Yes. The XU7JP4 (1.8 16v) coilpack is effectively just a wasted spark coilpack in a different package - one wire is 12v ignition, one for noise suppressor (if you use it) and two for firing each side of the coil.

Perfect, Dont know if there are wired the same as the bosch type coils packs as found on 106s etc? or its just the 1.8 coil pack iv got is no good.

most run 106 8v coilpack on dta, thats what im using.

its nigh on identical to the TU coilpack, just has the wiring connector at a different angle, its the same unit as the 2.0 8v and the 1.9 8v that runs Motronic (ZX, BX 405)

I'm using 405 SRI but the Corsa ones Sandy had when Iit was mapped it seemed even better.

Corsa b leads is what I used

[Baz 421]

Same here.

[Mad Scientist 106]

Get the Bosch ones. They are much better made than cheaper alternatives. I had some cheapos on and they fell to bits!

 

Corsa B as stated. Get them from Frauds for c. £30.

 

Any sagem or valeo type wasted spark coilpack will do you. They are on most older Vauxhalls as well as Pugs.
