Coil for 96 Sidekick

iRead · 09-30-2007, 08:16 PM

Hello All,

I have a 96 Suzuki Sidekick 2 door convertible with a 1590cc 95hp engine and a manual transmission. Last month the coil went out. I live in Venezuela and am having a very hard time finding a new coil here. Any suggestions on how to get this part will be appreciated. Most of the suggestions I receive locally include a trip to Aruba which would be ok if I had more confidence I would be able to get the part there. Thank you in advance for any assistance with this matter. I will be traveling in the USA the end of October and believe I will be able to get this part there but I would like to have it sooner if possible.

For the 96' Sidekick, I'm seeing a different coil than the e-bay one. I'm admitedly not up to full speed on the 4-cyl models, but the e-bay one looks like the style in my distributor-less V-6!

Straighten me out here please.

Suzuki moved to distributorless ignition in 96 on the 1.6L 16V so I don't know, maybe it is the same.
