Subject:HELP!!......Engine Wont Run (Tiico)
From:Phil S.
Date:Sat, 9 Aug 2003 16:48:37 -0700

My Tiico engine just died while i was driving around
45Mph in my 84' Westy. All electrical stuff still
works. Now it turns over fine and sputters for a
second on each key start attempt, but no run.
-ignition Coil is OK
-Sparkplugs/wires OK
-Distributor OK
-Fuel Pump OK...pulled fuel line between pump and
engine and fuel flowed steady when key on.

-My engine has been having hard starts after longer
drives(engine still hot)....if i step on gas peddle it
starts a little easier, but still takes like 5 seconds
to start up and run. Also Lately Idle RPMs have been
falling down 400-500RPM and sometimes i stall.....does
this sound like a timing issue?

Im lost, what else should i check?

Please help, Thanks
Phil 84 Westy Tiico
