W7DCO gap 0.7 to 0.8mm for coil with grey sticker. If sticker is long gone ...check the Secondary coil resistance should be 6.9 to 8.5K ohms.

If coil resistance is between 2.4 and 3.5K ohms it should have a green sticker and the plugs should be W7DTC and the gap 0.7 to 0.9mm.......it says here.
0.7mm = 27 thou
0.8mm = 31 thou
0.9mm = 35 thou

Herr Volkswagen says:-

Which is 24 - 31 Thou.

Its a green coil, i asked in gsf if they had the W70DC before i knew which coil it was and he said there is no such thing! I made him get his book out an there it was.. silly boy! He also says the W70dc and the W7TDC are the same plug? As they are the same order number..?

Anyway they didnt have either of them so :lol:
