Yea thats what I thought but when looking for coild on e-bay none of them have the right plug on them, they just had two ring terminals... as below

My crappy memory tells me the volvo coil was a round type bolted to a plate that had a standard timer connector on it. There was another modern looking type, maybe only found on the NA ? But it plugs in and works with the B18FT.

There is an amplifier on the bracket, which gets connected to the 2 coil pins :)

It does look the same, might be worth a punt.
