The next place to look is the Ignition On (IGN ) terminal make sure the voltage stays rock steady no drifting. The boxes will drop there output perforance as this voltage drops. Check that you have clean and tight connections to All points on the box. How old is the coil wire? we have seen an increase this year of coil wires causing issues like yours at the worst possible times. Pull off the Dist cap and check & clean out, you can use a electronic spray cleaner. Most auto parts stores carry it, it is usually marked as Alternator/ Starter cleaner. |
Pat, is correct he helped me earlier this year. Took his advice changed the coil and a couple other connections, the car came around and the plugs cleaned right up. I will go back to Pat in the future for ing upgrades. By the way I had all new 7al2 box 8201 coil wires etc, chased problem for over a year changed the box and coil with another new units, wires, coil wires etc, no help until I spoke with Pat.
