EMPI Marflex Blue Ignition Coil — 12V, 3.5Ω Oil-Filled (00-4502-B)

The Marflex Blue Coil is the value-priced replacement ignition coil for air-cooled VW and Porsche 12-volt systems. It is oil-filled, built to fit the standard EMPI/Bosch-style coil clamp, and serves as a direct, lower-cost alternative to Genuine Bosch when you need reliable spark without paying the German premium.
