Well - here is the final. 1/2 of a coil pack can and did go bad. 1st coil pack - for the #2 and the #5 cylinder. The #5 was bad and not firing at all. Replaced it thanks to high speed overnight by rusty and replaced and runs like a top. Thanks - Peter On Fri, Feb 5, 2010 at 4:16 PM, Peter

The plug wire thing happened on my 1978 MGB. Last spring when I took it out of storage it was missing something fierce. I thought i had a fouled plug, stuck valve, or bad cylinder. After much fooling around I switched the plug wire and it has been working great ever since. Mike On Feb

Sorry - been on my phone instead of computer. I first replaced the plugs. Then starting screwing with wires. it was clear that the number 5 was dead. I switched coil packs and number five fires off like crazy. the catch is so is the plug under the bad coil - only the slave side isnt' working.
