| Post subject: | Dizzy Probs - hmmm |
As many of you are probably aware some strange things have been happening to my engine this last year - anyway I started her up today, not been run for a week, and had a look under the bonnet there is a constant spark I can see coming from below the Dizzy cap - which is more prominent when revved - This is not right, of that i am sure. Well it was too dark to have a proper probe around so thought I would ask for suggestions before having it all apart tomorrow. In the last 3 months I have fitted new Spark leads, so I doubt it is them. Could it be that the Cap has a hairline crack or something ? Any suggestions are greatfully received. Also would this give a loss in power ? |

hehe - changed over the dizzy cap from my New V6 to my Silver one - and guess what ...... one of the bleeding cables was shot - the metal bit at the end had seperated from the HT lead - I only fitted these new about 4 months ago .... - So I put a new lead on and changed over the caps, hey presto no spark on outside lol .... didnt get chance to testdrive tonight but engine sounded better. When I put the Dizzy back on the New V6 then I will see if it was also the cap that was at fault or just the lead. |
