G300 misfire????
My 300 has a slight misfire at idle speed,I have treated her to new bosch plugs,new HT leads,adjusted the timing to standard octane petrol all to no avail.Any Ideas.
Sometimes it's the simplest things, I once had the same issue, turned out to be a loose HT lead to one of the spark plugs. After re-seating it properly the problem went away.
Has the fuel filter and pump ever been changed? Might be a case of fuel starvation?
Bruce, check on condition of your rotar arm and distributor cap.
Regards,
Distributor cap and rotor arm were slightly coked but cleaned up well.Still got the misfire though.What setting should the ignition timing adjuster be set at??
what happened to the gtd , did it sell in the end?
i think the ignition timing knob should be set at S for "Super" as long as you're not filling on anything below 95/93 octane.
