Hi!
My engine is missing sometimes when I am on the road. It stops very briefly (s plit second), and then it keeps going. Once, this happend while the car was stopped, and the engine just cut. I had to restart the engine, which it did without any problem. I read about other people with similar problems, however they also talk about back-firing. I haven't had any back-fire yet. And th eproblem does not happen all the time. Could it be the coil, the condenser, the points? What should I start with? And how can I determine which part is the faulty one? Cheers! JF |
