Apparently the saab engine doesn't seal well around the coil pack, anyone know where you buy the ingress kits if still available?
Or anyone have one to sell?

I used high temp gasket sealant in an effort to stop water getting in. It will fill your spark plug lugs up if not. Found out the hard way.

Took the nimbus off and threw it away, it went the wrong way anyway and wasn't at that time serving any real purpose. May have to make something if no one has a genuine one.

Why not get one from a dealer? They were only around 20 quid when I bought one.

Yes,
The sprint lid used to soak the coil pack even with the Turbo ingress cover fitted to it

Did you find an ingress kit in the end ?
I’m paranoid and want to fit one. Can’t find one anywhere and my car is outside
Occasionally.
Any help is massively appreciated.
