If it's the Gunsons one it's just a switch and two lengths of wire..... A paperclip will work just as well (depending on your engine!)

If you have changed the rpm senor and the ht leads then the missfire is most likley to be the dis pack behind the passenger side head. :(

See what fault codes say first ;)

I agree though, no fault codes and a misfire normally point HT. Worth checking for oil in plug wells first ;)
