    Anyone know HT lead position on coil pack on 4.6 thor

    I love this thread even if it is an old one :) Have just been told by our local Landy specialist that no spark on the back right cylinder of a 2001 (THOR) 4.6 V8 is most likely the ignition pack, as there are hardly ever HT lead problems on a P38. Thanks guys. The ignition pack looks a...
