g'day everyone, my nephew is having a bit of a prob with his el at the moment, when he slows down from speed (that is stopping at a set of lights)etc the car seems to want to stall (but doesn't)
he has changed all the leads and plugs at Christmas so unless he got a faulty one I wouldn't think that would be it. has anyone got some suggestions for me to have a look at he will be bring the car over to my place in a couple of weeks so I can help him out. any info would be good cheers whiskers |

im having pretty much the same problem at the momento with my EL Monty..
my leads are actually sparking where they are bundled down near the dizzy cap.. i dont have the time to actually take it apart and replace the leads, so i got it booked in this friday for new leads. but yeah it seems like its running off 4 cylinders.. a short term solution that i found worked with mine was actually seperating the leads from eachother with a long screw driver, but that only lasts a couple of days then it starts sparking again and running like crap.. hopefully its just the leads. |

Sounds like an air regulator or sensor. It is a common fault I haven't had to solve it on my EL as yet but had exactly that problem with a TX5. I do know the EL has a better system of measuring the air.
