NEW Dizzy Cap, Rotar and Plugs

Im sick of the car realibilty being poor, so went and brought
NEW Dizzy Cap, Rotar and Plugs.

Problems with the car have been like power faults occuring whilst being driven. Lack of power, staling when idle, misfiring

So lets see what happens when they r fitted at weekend

Hei.

Dizzy Cap, rotor and plugs.

There are 5 things missing: The 4 cables from the distributor to the plugs and the one from the coil to the distributor. Do not by the cheapest, and be careful to put the correct cables to the plugs. They might differ in length and must not be twisted due to interference between them. Something to do with good old Ohm and his law.

Morten.
