Strangling between 2000-3000 tpm...

Post by tomlebatisseur »

It remain a problem on my Spider 1980 injection.

When cold, i ve the problem very present.
When very hot , the problem reappear....slightly...

When "lukewram"....not very noticable problem....

I ve already clean the Air flow controller again and again....with a light sand paper.....it s not perfect , but it si free.

But what do you think of the Vacuum Advance Capsule? is it easy to change it? it s just under the ignition head....
How can i test it?

You need to test the temperature sensor, located in the "T" between the coolant hoses.

I mean the sensor in the T where water exits the head.
