Hi and thanks for the advice on my problem. While I was driving back from
work tonight my car was stumbling almost like it wasn't firing in one of the
cylinders when all of a sudden I got this boost of power and my car started
to run fine again. The rest of the way home it ran fine. So it seems to
have fixed itself for now. I checked the fuel filter and that is fine. I
also replaced the rotor and spark plugs earlier this year. I think it is
time to replace the cap, condenser, and points. Any other ideas. It really
seems like a firing problem to me. Oh, also it would only do this under
load while driving. When I reved it up with the clutch disengaged there was
no skipping or hesitation that I could notice.
Thank you,
Matt Peterson
