As part of troubleshooting a rough running condition on my 86 T-Type, we hooked an inductive timing light to each spark plug wire and noted the flashes when idle and when revving. We noticed that when revving a couple cylinders would cut out completely and were somewhat flaky at idle, AHA!!
I don't have someone to swap parts with so I'm stuck buying new stuff and I started with the coil pack. Replaced that and the problem still persists. My next in line was going to be the Ignition Module (I assume that is what it is that is under the coil pack), but dont want to spend the money if it for sure isn't the problem. There appears to be a ground on the rear of the passenger head, is this the ground for the ignition module? It looks solid on my car.
Any other ideas on what could cause this? Definatly cyl misfiring and it is causing a whole host of problems for me. We have been troubleshooting for a week now and pretty much ruled out everything other than electrical ignition issues.
Anything else I can try or test?
Thanks,
Tom
