Maybe-- I don't know what is or isn't compatable with the miata primary
firing pulse from the ECU.
The picture shows a pair of coils mounted over the rear of the engine.
This
is a fairly hot location that is well sheltered from water.
Actually, I'd be more tempted to try and find something like the coil over
system that failed.
In retrospect, the coil over system controller must have been sick for
some
time. Removing it solved a bunch of issues, at least for the present.
Cold starting after overnight cold soak (24F) with the new OEM coil pack,
plugs and NGK "Blues" was much faster than it has ever been, even with the
original OEM coil pack. Warm start is usually fast, with the occasional
two
revolutions or so needed for the ECU to figure out where the timing wheel
is.
