The weather has been cold here in Virginia so my car has been mostly in the garage but the symptom I have is for the first 15 minutes or so my car drives fine, I can get all rpm, but then - I am guessing it has something to do with something getting hot - the car starts to sputter at higher rpms and begins to sputter a lower a lower rpms quickly over the next few minutes - then undriveable.
My coworker - a motorcycle nut - says either my coil or condensor may be getting hot and faulty. Prior to this I had an mps go bad and replaced it with 049 - the funny thing it that the engine won't run with any other mps which leads me to think my ecu might be funky. Anyway - thatnks for the condensor and coil responses - more trouble shooting is in order once time frees up and weather improves. |
