mgcwrnch Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Yes. it is running fine at higer RPM. When dropping down to idle it will hold a few seconds, then the tach needle jumps all over, then quits. Seems to be electronic ?? New fuel filter, cleaned the TPS contacts. Hope for some ideas !!

naru Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Check for side play of the distributor shaft. You want almost none. Common fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgcwrnch Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Will do ASAP. Only has 106,+++ miles, should be tight. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgcwrnch Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Right about that, 1000 + !! Have .060 to .090 in movement of the shaft. Has a screw down cap, which was replaced with the rotor. NAPA and others cannot find the replacement. Anyone have a part ## or where to get a good rebuilt ?? Or, anyone have a good used one to part with ??
