EP70-PT Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) So, today I washed my engine bay and after that I started the car, everything was fine, then it reached temperature and the noise changed, now, when I rev it, from idle to 2k rpm it chokes and shakes, it's fine at higher revs though... could it be my leads/spark plugs? or is it just because I'm low on fuel on an incline? Here's a video so you can check for yourself: >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Qi2mr3B5XY Edited January 3, 2016 by EP70-PT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
karl. Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Most likely water in the ignition system eg down the plug holes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 Most likely water in the ignition system eg down the plug holes. Just a matter of letting it dry then? I just got the car, I'll eventually change the plugs and the leads Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EP70-PT Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) How do you solve the issue? Remove coils and dry? Edited January 3, 2016 by EP70-PT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 It's still running like a two stroke, even at full throttle on a straight line and warm.. Coils are dry... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5e colin Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 dry ignition leads and plugs on the dizzy they got water soaked and as the boys say down the sparky holes if there is water in it it will eventually dry out in time if left like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EP70-PT Posted January 4, 2016 Author Share Posted January 4, 2016 Yeah I think that is the reason, I got zapped when I touched around the Dizzy, it was dark, don't know exactly where but it wasn't the battery Quote Link to post Share on other sites
