Thatsa good attitude, Yorktown, about running these engines hammer down, long haul for several hours at least once each month. Old lady cars - they are not!!

What we gotta do is put together 'Italian tune-up' kit for Mr.Speed..... am thinkin tool box in trunk, full tank of gasoline, ultra high octane purchased at airport.... 1/2 dozen fuel filters, each at first with life expectancy of maybe 1 hour...... then kick him in the ass and get him on his way.

In terms of ignition/electrical problems..... coil and wires alone come to mind as something that can cause feeble spark. Thats an electronic ignition, so should be maintenance free.

Am also wondering what kinda shape the fuel strainer is in.
