Sustained high load, high rpm operation...
SutteR... If you already have the plugs in the engine, try this. Find a
long, straight, deserted piece of road, without crossroads, where you can safely experiment. An uphill slope would be even better. Stop your car, and when it is safe to do so, take off like your ass was on fire Give it full throttle and redline every gear !!! If you can make it to the top end of 5th gear (say 6000 rpm plus) without feeling the car misfiring, then your plugs are fine in 3rd, 4th or 5th, then your ignition system can't handle the 1.1 gap under heavy load. If it does miss, try a fresh set of NGK basic copper plugs at the 0.8 gap and see if the problem goes away. If it doesn't, you need to look at your plug caps, leads, distributor cap, rotor and coil. These should be clean, tight fitting, no cracks or broken connectors, and the edges of the rotor should be clean and sharp. Do the basics first ![]() Cheers... jondee86 The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man. |
