> Dirty trigger points? Keith > Just got back from a trip and drove my 71 FI Fastback yesterday for the > first time in a couple weeks. It seems to be having an odd problem. > Whenever I'm at speeds above about 30mph, every 10-15 seconds it does > this thing where it feels like the engine is missing really bad or > something, acceleration suddenly stops and it makes this weird vibration > that's like when the engine is lugging from being in too low of a gear > (but it's not lugging at all, engine is usually between 2500-3500 rpm > when it does it) > > It does it until I let off the gas suddenly and press it down again > suddenly. > > I checked my FI and spark plug wire connections and they seem to be > good. Does anyone have any idea what might cause this? > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
