P38 4.6 2001 {t reg} bosch thor.
I have the 'eight in a row' coil pack flitted. Not the two blocks of four.

The great google suggests the 'eight in a row" pack is GEMS.

Do I have the wrong coils fitted?

I want to replace the coil pack and am unsure if I should fit the same again?

My 4.0 Thor, 2000MY has 2 coil packs at the back of the inlet manifold. I understood the 4.6 Thor to be the same

Google agrees with you. I'm wondering if I should fit the type you have.

Do you have the banana manifold? Gems/Thor switch was in '99 if I'm not mistaken

Typical coder, back to the manual. Remember you sit on your arse and open the door with your elbow.
