Oil vs Epoxy coils.....

The Chromebox I first was using on the Barracuda was per the MP Book best matched with the Accel Supercoil. I had that coil mounted upright, to the firewall. I got a few years out of it, at least 20 K miles. Then I had smelled oil on a trip, and it turned out to be the coil had started seeping oil around the top.
