I have a 98 Neon with the DOHC 2.0 that I race on an oval track. This past weekend it got very hot and was back firing while racing. I believe that the coil got too hot and that is what caused this to happen. My question is, should I replace the coil pack where it has been overheated or do you guys think it will be OK. It doesn't look like anything happened to it externally.
Thanks in advance
I have put my neons through everything and I have never had a coil pack fail on me besides on the DD's. I have seen the heat shields they make for the coils, that may help. Your running champion coppers with the right gap?
I have yet to hear about a coil pack on a neon overheating causing a misfire, but there is a first time for everything. I would think it would a plug missing or fuel.
