StarletRick Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 check your plugs. if you have a rrfpr, check the pressure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 also worth noting is replacing your ignition leads, i go through about a set a year.the ignition system in general on the starlets are pretty week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Enzo Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 A set a year?? how does one manage that? 30k+ anual milage every year should do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Yes here is the video with the camera..www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjaZYBHClKQYou must just lissen to the engine..definatly sounds ingnition related,you could be shearching in vain if you dont find the right cause so work mythodicaly.take the plugs out and see if they need regapped or replaced,if the plugs are fine work back until you get to the distributer cap.dont worry though its nothing bad,as we are coming into the colder months they take a beating.
