Modern coils don't look anything like the old lucas style tin can: I am not exactly sure on the lanos but on many modern cars you now find a coil pack looking usually like a little black box closely attached or, indeed, directly attached, to each individual sparkplug: it'll likely be a dealer only bit and ther'ell be one for each plug or pair of plugs, so are you sure you have coil trouble??

What's actually wrong with the car?

yes it is the coil had the breakdown out to look at it . it was missing and when he looked one lead was dead so he swapped a lead and there was still nothing . i have found the part just a bit worried about doing it myself indeed it does look like a little black box with all 4 leads attatched .

yes its a coil pack,they are quite easy to replace,just take your time,take the old one off and replace with the new one.making sure the leads go on the right plugs,match it up before you take the old one off and number the leads to match.
