Replaced it with OEM Bremi coil (Made in Turkey), same as in car when new. Cost $110. with tax and shipping. Runs smoother than with the aftermarket.
I have used the 027 coil in a beetle with with points and the coil was getting hot. It was solved by using the 039 coil (Bosch grey).
Car was misfiring, so I replaced the ignition coil unit (old one was showing cracks). I replaced it with a Beru (OEM) unit. Car went from a sputtering mess to running like a top.
I have changed the ignition coils, spark plugs, MAP sensor, fuel filter, and ran fuel cleaner in the tank twice. The only time it seemed better was for a couple of months after I changed ignition coils (Bosch).
Put in the new coil (Denso best available here off shelf)- and did quick hook up test for spark. NO SPARK at all.
