I have quite a few Ford Cologne V4 engines and I've recently added two 2.3 V6s to the collection. One is in bits and incomplete, the other should run but is missing its ignition module. I have no idea what car the engine's come out off or what its age might be, but it has a Pierburg carb and a Ford 82TF12100LA/ Bosch 0 237 306 042 dizzy. Does anyone know what Motorcraft/ Duraspark unit and coil I need to get it running? I have no experience whatsoever with transistor ignition, hence my questions.

I'd say it probably came from a sierra 2.3

the 82 in the part number refers to the year it was introduced so post 1982 would be as suggested a sierra or possibly Granada.

Thanks both, that narrows down the search. I'll see if I can find a parts book/ workshop manual online. BTW, the engine had an auto box fitted when I bought it (didn't buy the box).

Most likely from a mk2 Granada. And I do seem to recall they used the same module for the 2.3 as the 2.8  |

I'll see if I can get one of those then. Capri units are the same I would think?

The capri 2.8 is on injection so unsure whether they will be the same or not
