Still cant get it to go!

<< < (2/5) > >>

H:
is it cutting out under load? and just dying cant even get it back on the revs with the throttle. mine was doing this for months often at 70 on the motorway, which is scary.. turned out to be the ignition amplifier (little box on the side of the dizzy) gets too hot and breaks down, cuts off the spark.

steve prosser:
it wont start at all!

when it died it was hardly reving over tick over.
thought we'd found when we traced and found the coil to be fautly

but still puzzling me

H:
try giving the ignition amp a "tap" see if it will start then. mine often wouldnt start at all until I tapped the dizzy obviously got the broken circuit in the amp connected again and it would start..... other things I was told that caused it to cut out like that was the wires that run from the battery side to the other side accross the top of the radiator shorting out, its the speed sensor for the gearbox or something.

steve prosser:
thanks for that
i dont think the ign module is the problem
will investigate the speed sensor
any more details about it?

H:
It was an american site so I didnt really understand it but it was more a cutting out whilst being driven and being able to restart eventually problem than a failing to start at all problem, other things I chacked on mine where the crank angle sensor and the MAS sensor just the other side of the air intake check this isnt earthed  as it shouldnt be earthed to give a correct signal to the ECU. I'd check the crank angle sensor 1st though as if this has failed, it will put the ecu into a no start mode.
