hey all!
my car died on me on the way to work this morning. after hours of messing around i replaced the distributor and reset the timing (i had to do it by ear= no timing light but i did put it into diagnostics mode) the car runs fine, and good pickup................but! on start-up it seems to have a bit of trouble i give it a rev and its fine after that. would there be something to this or is it because i haven't set the timing properly? cheers, chris

Was it a new distributor?
If second hand could be dodgy. Also it could be the timing is out |

I'm only going to use this dizzy until I get a new one, this is a perfect time to ask! Are the cheap dizzy/coil kits from eBay crap or should I buy a mid range one? Again cheers
