Hey guys, ive changed the plugs, leads and coils on my au xr8... took it for a spin and the dte dropped by about 25?!
Whats up with that and how can i fix it? Also noticed when putting new coil on the right had a plug come from somewhere? has a grey xmas tree clip too with pbt gf30? dont know where it went so attached to mounting plate of right coil...... is this the problem here? cheers Peter |

As I said in my PM, that grey plug attaches to the black bracket that the coil packs are bolted to. On the manifold side of it. You'll see a hole in the bracket that the xmas tree plug goes into and holds it there.
