Richard,
       If you have the cash buy oem plug wires and
change the plugs too.   Coil would be the next thing
after that.   If you are a bit short on cash, try
looking at your engine on a cold dark wet night and
see if you see any sparks aflyin.  gary

Hi,




During the winter my 87 Westy began to stumble when
the engine was
damp, usually after a heavy rain storm. The stumbling
is cured by
turning the ignition off and back on again, and goes
away after about
5 or 10 minutes of driving.


Any one have an idea as to what the problem is?


Thanks.
