  • Here I go again

    My car runs ok in 1st gear but when it hits 2nd it fall on its face, like it drops a cyndler.Its a 91 auto and I did a b3 swap about a month ago and it has been running fine. I checked all the wires and plugs, cap, and button. It runs ok sometimes and others it’s only on 3 cyndlers.

    if its on 3 cylinders and sometimes all 4, then its likely electrical. first check plug wires and distributor/rotor.

      I changed the disstributor with a old one I had, it helped some but still not running like it should. Could it be in the timmimg. I think I may sell the car and find me a 5speed, I drive over 100 miles most days and think a 5speed car would get me better milage. I see Tonycash Is comming down this way and is looking for a rust free car, may need to talk to him.
