How much do leading coil go for?

Hey mates,

I just finsh testing my coils and the leading one are dead. I was wondering if you all knew how much Mazda wants for them.
If you have a good one sitting around, I'll take it off your hands.

P.S. the magnacore wires have very resistance!

sup dawg!!!!

The leading coil is cheapest when bought through www.mazdaformance.com

Mine went back and I had to replace it a couple months ago.

Also replace the ignition wiring harness that connects all the coils to the main harness. It's a small harness that has a connector.

It alone is about 50 bucks and the leading coil is maybe 120.

Call me for the part number, i have it laying around somewhere.

it says it in the manual in the ignition section
you ohm the 2 places where the coils go in as well as each one with where the black connector goes if I remember right...less than 1 and 16 were the #s
you have to check out the manual because I did this a while ago and forgot

Thanks SurgeMonster, totally forgot about the manuals I downloaded awhile back.

FYI you were right,
Black connector should be below 1 Ohm
Tho two leads should be 9.6-16 kOhm

Thanks for your help.
