My Tiico engine just died while i was driving around 45Mph in my 84' Westy. All electrical stuff still works. Now it turns over fine and sputters for a second on each key start attempt, but no run. -ignition Coil is OK -Sparkplugs/wires OK -Distributor OK -Fuel Pump OK...pulled fuel line between pump and engine and fuel flowed steady when key on. -My engine has been having hard starts after longer drives(engine still hot)....if i step on gas peddle it starts a little easier, but still takes like 5 seconds to start up and run. Also Lately Idle RPMs have been falling down 400-500RPM and sometimes i stall.....does this sound like a timing issue? Im lost, what else should i check? Please help, Thanks Phil 84 Westy Tiico __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com |
