Review on Beck Arnley High Performance 178-8492 Ignition Coil Pack: Enhancing Engine Efficiency by Eric Rose

Revainrating 1 out of 5

10 months/1223 miles and FAILURE

This review is for a Beck-Arnley 178-8492 coil that I bought in 2014 but only ended up installing in my Miata 2000 1.8L got August 2017 when its original coil pack failed after 67,014 miles. This NEW coil pack from Beck Arnley failed in early July 2018 after 1223 miles of light use. This is a full-fledged production car, used only in good weather and does not participate in races. After getting engine codes P0300/P0301/P0304 I was sure the coils had to be good so I replaced the cam angle sensor and crankshaft position sensor, NGK spark plugs, NGK wires and drained the fuel to make sure that her good petrol looked to. the culprit and still no joy. The new coil pack solved the misfire problem, but unfortunately I used a different Beck-Arnley as I was still in denial when I just ordered other parts as a last resort.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Functionality
