Re: Slight Miss or hesitation
LOL!
You took the words right out of my mouth!
It is a mesh strap that goes from the driver's side rear of the head to
the firewall.
It supplies power to the lights and ignition module and computer. Put
the brakes on with the headlights and not enough juice can be left for a
good spark signal from the ignition module or computer.
An alternator going bad can also pull down the power going to the coil,
but you should also see a dead battery really soon or a volt gauge going
all over the place.

Re: Slight Miss or hesitation
Thanks everyone. Found the ground strap loose at the firewall. Tightened and
problem solved. What a group. Never fails.
