Hi all, After changing carbs, coil, vacuum advance, cap and rotor, my motor STILL is running badly. When driving, it seems like all electrical power stops for a second, then picks up again. It acts like it is missing, it stumbles pretty bad even at steady speeds, then runs fine for a minute or two. I am lost about the cause. It is frustrating because it is very intermitent and at idle it runs fine. I thought maybe the coil wire had grounded agains the block, but all the wires look fine. Any ideas? I remember that recently someone else on the list had a similar problem, but I just cleaned up my files and deleted all the back digests that I had been saving. I don't remember how that problem got fixed. Thanks in advance, Craig ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Craig Standley University of Washington Physics "Life is like riding the bus, it cstand@u.washington.edu requires change." -Dennis Miller http://weber.u.washington.edu/~cstand -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
