Next...who knows, depends what's been done recently.  Crank sensor, wishbones, driver's door checkstrap, rocker gaskets again if non-genuine parts were used or the breather system wasn't cleaned out...  :D

Looking on the bright side, as far as I know the Bosch DIS should be OK.  :)

Neglected my OOFer's duty earlier...


...Are you 100% confident/trusting of the diagnosis of failed dispack? 

Could the sparkplugs be the problem, or the HT leads?
Presumably the plugwells were full of oil, prompting the camcover gasket change; that may have damaged a/some lead(s) and/or caused tracking on the insulators of the plugs.  Rule out these things if you haven't already before anything else.  :y
