Bought the engine a couple years ago and just put it in and drove it. Drove it around about a year now. never adjusted the valves... Probably not the issue then. Not trying to poke at anyone's mechanical skills, but has anything been touched or changed.....like spark plug wires? Trying to get a baseline for variables. If nothing was changed, then the issue is most likely a failed FI part. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
