    You should have a ground strap on coil 6 and 3.

            conected and still no spark. ahhhhhhh. This is pissing me off i need to figure out this bullshit. I think im in over my head. Im so lost do i have to hook anything up under the dash since i have an 87. the coils have power and so do the injectors.

                My m52 only had one, but I've since then got an s50 valve cover. It looks like one is all that would be needed as the whole top cover is one sheet of metal.

                      There needs to be at least one, but so long as there is one, you should be okay.

                      I have one on 2 and 6 on my 95 s50. 11/94 build.
