how do i get the coil pack off, i want to replace it with a new one

 

using any combo of the following:

dremel tool w/cut off wheel
mallet & chisel
punch

 

Oh man, the third gen 2.8s use that rivited coil bracket?

 

i have a 3.1 is it the same as 2.8

 

i used a drill

 

I used pretty much the same approach as 85 bird. Just ground off the heads of the rivits with a dremel, punched the rest out with a small screwdriver, and then used some self tapping screws to put it back on with. Oh,and you use the screws, be sure to put som caps over the pointed ends sticking out, nothing like and operating temperature screw point to wake you up.
