Fred, A known fault to check is the wire harness connector to the distributor. Evidently the wire path through the connector into the distributor can develop an intermittent open. I believe wiggling the wires/ connect while the engine is idling is the test. sincerely, Mark Keller 91 Carat Cowichan Bay, BC |
