    Default 4AC miss fire???

    i just changed the sparkies because it was missing.
    and now its running a lot better. but when i rev it over 2500RPM it starts
    missing hectic again!?...brrrraaaaaah sounds like a semi-automatic!

    could it be the leads? or something worse?

    Sounds like regular maintanance problems not specific to the AE86. To fix all these problems would once have been called a "tune-up", an art now lost unless you read a book.

    Ask the same question on American forums, the answer will be "get an ignition". By this they mean a huge MSD box. (Who would have thought the transister could make things larger?)

    Others on this forum: "Ahhhrrr, the EVO misfiring system!"

    Ask on Toymods: "Just save up for a 1UZ".

    give the ignition a bit more life.
