Default Need help tracking down a Volvo connector for the 1.8t coil pack conversion

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/15624/coilpacks_3.jpg"></center><p>The image shows two, four-pin, male connectors from some model of Volvo that fit into the OEM S4/S6 ECU to POS female connectors apparently WITHOUT any modification. If this is true, it is the final key to creatign a complete plug and play DIY coil pack conversion harness. (Sorry, Marc).

I have requested more info from the fellow who sent me the photo but he's sleeping in England right now.

Any Volvo nuts still awake that have a flashlight and some time?

Default Exactly, some of us are DYI'ers... and some are not, and some just don't have the time...

So it's great if you/we could find the part for those DIY'ers, but also great if someone makes a plug'n'play version that you can buy too...

Default Update (sort of). More clues but no clear answer (inside)

"Merlin" from the S2 forum answered me with:

"Pretty sure they were from a petrol (gas) S40 around 1997-1999ish. I found a few down at the breakers (wreckers) but I seem to remember that they weren't on the diesel version. I can't remember what the plugs were for but they were fairly obvious in the engine bay! It is also very simple to remove the pins from the plugs. I did this so that I could solder my cables directly to the pins and then push them back into the housing!!"

SO, I will be at a Volvo wreckers tomorrow (I hope). Hopefully, I will find a plug. If I do, I will post more specific details.

the picture didn't come through, but I'll bet it's a 4-pin version of the AMP Junior Timer series. You can find them on this page, albeit expensively.
