1991 Questions for all other cars 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual
hi,
my car experiences a rouh or uneven idle, but sometimes it works as smooth as silk. i can't find out what's the problem and drives me crazy as i watch the tach moving + - 50 rpm. by the way it is carbureted. i just want to know whether the ignition leads are bad or good. sometimes when i touch the wires while the engine runs i feel a slight electricity on my hand. is it normal? thnx.

HI there,
These old style copper leads are leaking voltage and cross firing, get good quality silicon leads if you can this hould help a lot.
