Back in the '90s SWMBO took over my SUV and I started driving her Sirocco. I don't remember if it was the day after I had tuned it up or not, but driving to work I could barely press on the gas without getting all kinds of vibration, missing, etc. So I would accelerate very slowly and if the vibration started I would back off the throttle a little and try to accelerate even more slowly. When I got to my office I popped the bonnet and the distributer cap was not clipped down :-) I can't believe the thing ran at all! -- Stephen West-Fisher N4IK _______________________________________________ Mgs@autox.team.net Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/mharc@autox.team.net |
