Question: Ignition Breakup??
 
What will make your car have ignition breakup. I recently saw this video and he said it had ignition breakup, and thats EXACTLY how my car sounds in higher rpms.... Would the timing being off cause this or do i have a weak coil or wires or something.... My plugs, and wires are new so i dont think thats the prob, but i cant get my timing right cause my idle wants to stay above 1200 rpms. soo wat will cause this???

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...62026996&hl=en Here is the Vid of the car that sounds just like mine....

Thanx

Set your timing so it is correct. The idle issue is another issue.

I would rather have correct timing and a high idle. Than incorrect timing and a good idle.

Unless all you do is idle the car :P

yes i kno i need to set the timing but you cant unless your idle is low, but my idle issue is because of my bac valve so I can fix it.... but will incorrect timing cause ignition breakup?

Yes, incorrect timing will cause break up .

And you can set your timing at what ever rpm floats your boat.

yeah but the ecu adjusts your timing automaticly after 1000 rpms right? so if you adjust it that high your gonna be incorrect???

I think that is where / why you jumper the initial set connector.

Do you have a hayes manual?

JCurry 09-18-06 01:01 AM

so when u jumper that it wont automaticly adjust your timing???

I checked the haynes manual and it didnt say anything about jumpering the initial set coupler....
