Uh oh.
Pulled into Hannaford Supermarket this afternoon, when the engine stalled.
Actually, it ran rough as hell with pedal gooses for about 30 seconds.
Electronic Ignition. Checked spark with screwdriver in the wire ends. All
cylinders getting spark, not sure how strong, but seemingly okay.
Did not check fuel flow, but can hear the electric fuel pump throbbing.
Trying to start, the car backfires but makes no attempt to catch and run.
Checked the float resevoirs, no fuel leaking out the overflow tube.
Do TR3A's ever jump a cog and throw the timing off that much? Or am I looking
at a valve problem? (or...both)
