Product Details

HELLA OE Certified ignition components are engineered for stable electrical performance and long service life. This direct ignition coil is designed to maintain strong spark output, improve ignition consistency, and support cleaner engine operation. The 358168771 is a practical replacement for vehicles that require a flush-fitting pencil coil with a 4-pin blade-style connection and bolted mounting at the engine head. This part cross-references Continental 49479 and Standard Ignition UF843 for the same application.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Engine misfire caused by weak or inconsistent spark output
• Rough idle from failing ignition coil performance
• Hard starting related to ignition voltage loss
• Reduced fuel efficiency from incomplete combustion
• Check engine light concerns tied to ignition coil faults

Installation Notes

Verify the connector style, pin count, mounting type, and engine-head fitment before installation. This coil uses a bolted mount and a 4-pin female connector, so matching the original configuration is important for proper fit. Installation should be performed by qualified personnel, and the ignition system should be inspected for related wear, corrosion, or damaged connectors before the new coil is installed.

Quality Assurance

HELLA OE Certified parts are tested for performance, mechanical stability, and corrosion resistance. The coil is built to handle vibration and harsh operating conditions while maintaining reliable ignition output over time.
