Car conks when engine warms

Oct 05, 2004 4 Replies

I had this problem for a very long time. If my Orion was driven every day, it was fine, but if it was left for a day or two and then driven, as soon as the engine got warm, it would conk out on me. This was a very frustrating problem, but turns out it was all down to a fautly coil. I swapped a new(er!) one in, and hey presto!, no more problem. Just wanted to to put this there incase anyone else was experiencing the same trouble.

I hope it does work for you, I'll be very glad to have helped someone out! I searched high and low on the net for these symptoms but couldn't find anything. Let me know if it works ;)
