i'll admit it, i don't keep up with the new technologies like i use to.
here's the symptoms - lincoln towncar 92, runs great going down highway, accelerating, all speeds above idle. gas mileage is 20 + which is about normal.
sometimes at idle, and it will be idling beautifully, will all of a sudden break into a rough running lope, like it's cammed out. doesn't die.
picked up a new symptom. on occasion, will have pre-knock on at least one cylinder. so here you are, sitting at stop light, engine idling, with ping, ping, ping like you get when you turn off engine only it is running. give it some gas, it goes away.
i guess the joker in the deck is that it comes and goes. other times, the car runs fine and idles fine. i hate the intermittents. any idea as to what module is opening up or closing?
