Running rich can do this. Try a fresh set. Try sucking on the pressure sensor anyway. Measure the system voltage as best you can.Do this with the fresh plugs if possible, so you have the best chance to get the RPMs up. What do you get? Do you have a charger that you could put on it even when it is running, just to keep the voltage up? - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Search old messages on the Web!
