Fuel Starvation or something else ?

Hi All, I'm having a persistent problem with my 95 4.2 SGL. Most of the time she runs fine and is even "pretty nippy" (both Graham Cumming and Peter Connan have driven her about 9 months ago) but come to a long uphill, more than a kilometer or so and she starts jerking and spluttering and ...

Y60 Fan blades cracking

Hi All, The fan blades on my 1995 SGL (Petrol) are showing signs of cracking and as I'm leaving on a trip on Friday I'd like to sort it before then. The local dealers are useless, can't do anything without a VIN no and tell me mine is "too old to be on the system". Can anyone give me a par...

The Stealers have quoted me : Distributor Cap...

Re: Upgrade Coil ??

Thanks all for the input. I'll take a look at/for the resistor. Coil is currently mounted on the left and I reckon about as far from the exhaust as possible on that side. Peter's comment about petrol on the right noted, so I won't go that route. Will also see if I can find a cooler spot. Thanks agai...

Upgrade Coil ??

Hi All, Some time back I replaced the points in my 1995 4.2 GLS with a Pertronix ? electronic unit. I've been very happy with that decision (especially as far as starting is concerned) but I think I may be cooking the coil. I've replaced 2 so far and I'm now experiencing an ominous misfire similar t...
