I went through 2 bottles of techron via high test , as always.... It is still hard to start though. When starting though if you tap on the gas it wants to cut out, when u dont touch the gas it runs at around 4-50 rpms. It has to warm up for about 2 minutes or if you go to drive or reverse she dies.... any ideas? _Charlie_ Monmouth County NJ!



Does your description apply to cold starts or hot starts?

At most times it is when the motor is cold. It still wont idle correctly when warm. Isnt the ignition coil connected to the wire from the distributor cap? How hard is it to change?-Chuck
