Idle Splutter / Misfire
« on: October 23, 2018, 11:19:08 PM »
Only had my 126 a few weeks, it’s a 652cc and its only done 9k miles. But it’s suffering from a misfire and it splutters a lot when it’s idling and sounds a lot like it’s stalling and shakes the car. What are the possibilities of this?
I’ve changed plugs, air filter, fuel filter and fuel

Hi Sam, Try reseting the points and then re-time the ignition timing if that doesn't sort it out replace the condenser
