Mine flickered for a second yesterday on a 6 hour ride on a highway ramp, I hit some bumps real hard not sure if that Jarred the wires. I was pushing it too a bit at 75 for a while gowesty 2.3 motor in an 84. I’m Interested in what people have to say too now. I may be a quart low tho gotta check it today not sure if that has anything to do with it.
