Hi all,
Bit of a background / long shot type question but a mate is a bit of a Capri fan and has a Brooklands that needs quite a bit of work (but is a runner), a 2.8i that is on the road and another 2.8i that he's currently using for parts (also a runner).
The one he has on the road has 60k on the clock and whilst it drives / runs well it's tick over is a bit lumpy (I think it hunts slightly).
I believe he's changed or checked most the basic stuff (plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor and FWIW the fuel pump / filters etc) but the problem persists, so I wondered if anyone has been_there_done_that and knows if there is anything that was a common issue on such setups (may be the exact same setup in other vehicles of course, like the old Granny).
I think he was last looking at the distributor / manifold that sits on top of the air filter but he's not sure how you could test / check it?
Failing anything positive here, is the next step to get the fuel injection / injectors checked over, or are those sort of things pretty bomb proof?
Cheers, T i m
