What was the cause of the misfire then???
No idea..... Basically, the story goes like this.....
"Fixed the mysterious mis-fire on the Oldsmobile Toronado tonight
Finally!
I fitted the coil pack that Mr Chevy picked up for me the other week, it started to run with A continuous mis-fire and was running very, very rich.....
So, I gave up, closed the bonnet, and walked away....
Anyway, cut a long story short, had A few Courvoisiers tonight and decided I was A mechanic, pulled the coil pack, re-wired it, screwed it back in, started it, ahhhh, the mis-fire is back to intermittent.....
Better than before I thought.....
So, my house mate jumps in the drivers seat, we take it for A spin to get the engine warmed and sweet..... as it heated, took it to A massive roundabout, gave it A kick down, bang, engine stalls for A second, then some angels came and cleared the shit from the engine, and off she goes, like A rocket! :shock:
take her for one more cruise of the area to see if it comes back, nothing..... She seems to have been cleared
The Truffle of Pimp-ness is back to its mechanical best and she is loving it..... "
