--Previous Message-- : I’ve been having a bit of a rethink on what’s : going on and wonder if it might be : electrical. : If I drive it and can keep the revs above : 1200rpm when at traffic lights or in line of : traffic I can drive off….But if revs drop : below 1000rpm it cuts out and has to cool : down for 15 to 20 minutes until the temp : gauge drops back to about half way between : cold and where it usually sits (Just before : the 6 o’clock mark). : : I’m now thinking it might be the coil or the ignition module on the side of the distributor breaking down when engine bay is hot, it did cross my mind to just replace both but couldn't get the coil from either Coventry's ($300 +) or Supercheap ($160 + freight) and not sure what's involved with replacing the module, so thought it better to get some advice from here. : : Thought about the ignition leads but doesn’t : seem logical they would ALL fail at the same : time to the point they do and then ALL come : good when the temperature drops a bit ….same : with the spark plugs. : : When it’s cold it starts first touch, : battery is new and spins motor over fine, : when driving there is no noticeable loss of : power and when started from cold doesn’t : miss. : : Any comments/suggestions appreciated.
