Well here is a bad one, was obvious from the start that the original Bosch coil was bad but refused to believe it so went through all of the obvious tests. Coil was bad! Came out of this one owner Nepal orange 2.0

Ha!! My 2.0 wouldn't start for three months and since I had spark (wink wink) I checked and fixed everything else. Tried a new coil and car started with just three plug wires on.....has run perfect since. My cousin over the telephone said try a new coil in the first week of downtime....I thought he was crazy...called him to thank him later. Spark under compression is way different than spark in open air. Turns out high compression engine guys know this one really well.
