Hi all. This is for a Jetta engine in a vanagon. New rotor with ~ 4000 miles. Am I looking at damage due to excessive engine heat? The Jetta coil is purported to put out higher than average voltage. http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/1597861.jpg http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/1597862.jpg I'm trouble shooting an intermittent engine stall. It started out as "blips" at highway speed then finally showed up as a brief stall making a left hand turn. It might have been due to corrosion at distributor hall sender connectors. I addressed that best I could, cleaned all other engine connectors, (they looked fine), cleaned up rotor. So far so good. Thanks.
