Definitely ask for Tom, especially if a guy named Mark answers.

WHY ARE YOU YELLING SO LOUD.......
THE REST OF US AREN'T "HARD OF READING" YOU KNOW...


Sorry, yes, I saw your second post, but I just couldn't help myself....

And, yes, Thank You Mark. For wearing pants of any colour.

Another attempt at humour....just one more service I offer.

And please god, could you people start using "U"s in the appropriate places....i.e. words like Colour and Humour??

Don't forget to get heat paste. If you don't know what I'm referring to, search. Wyatt's Ride has experience with that module and dealing with it.

Do you guys think on a 27 year old car that has never had the module off that the paste should be reapplied? I have had no issues yet but that paste can't possibly last that long. Every other bit on the car crumbles at this age when you look at it wrong.

That would only apply if this was an 84 EuroS with EZK.

The rest of the 16V's have a different ignition module that is sealed, no maintenance or paste to worry about.

Hacker, I fixed it for you. IIRC, the K denotes knock sensors, which the 84 EuroS does not have.
