NO CEL, spuddering acceleration

[drummersteve7]

might wanna check the ignitor inside the dizzy.
yes a new dizzy should fix your issue.
cheaper route is grab a junkyard ignitor.

Jak will get ya all taken care of.

never opened a dizzy before come to think of it! but thanks! im hoping his dizzy seals the deal!

As for your stumbling problem without a cel, i would say it could be related to the oxygen sensor, as a test you can unplug the o2 sensor and see if the stuttering goes away (yes the cel will come on).

Also if you saw your rpm gauge bouncing/dancing independant of actual engine rpm, then thats the classic sign the the igniter (ignition control module or icm) under the distributer cap is on its way out. Replace it before it leaves you stranded.

can i by just the Ignitor? i was told the stutter is from my dizzy not being able to be set, which is causing obvious bad timing. so ill wait for a ignitor or dizzy to come my way thats affordable. Not to mention i get a blow out today! an have NO SPARE!! this car is acting out against me! lol

Yes you can get an igniter by itself, it should be cheaper then the whole distributer assembly. Grab one or two from a junkyard. It shouldn't be all that much.

ok cool, thanks,
hey JAKFROST, u still coming threw?
hit me up if so, 856 956 6199

i got rid of the suddering, well most of it, I had bad plugs! now juss gotta get the ignitor or dizzy!

i juss swapped out my blow up A6 an got an A1....
A1 didnt have the intake mani, so i swapped mine onto it. put it in an wala...
i get a hesitation when i tap the throttle... does the A6 intake manni differ from the A1 manny? Injectors bigger smaller? as i said, im not getting any CEL's altho i did when my TPS clip cracked so i had to zip tie it back up, but now no CEL...
i get spudder/hesitation when i first try to accel. then clears up. when in gear an foot on the brake, it spudders, an drops idle a lil ....... any suggestions? dirty IAC valve? EGR? please help! this sucks!!!

The A1 and A6 are pretty much identical except for the cams...the lack of cel's and the hesitation when hitting the throttle could be a bad O2 sensor..are you running rich? and if so what are you running? if you have boost you shouldn't be running any higher than 10:1

i dont know how its running, an no turbo here.... all stock...
juss waitin to get an ignitor for my dizzy to see if it will fix the dizzy an go from there.

90exkid let me know how that goes my cb is doing the same thing with the tach problem. do you ever have trouble starting after its been sitting for a while?

[90exkId]

umm sometimes, like it dont start on the first turn, but thats bout it.

[hdjx20]

maybe its another problem i have (or i just have a worse case) but i just put in a brand new ignitor and im still having the same issues with the jumpy tach and cold starts. you should let me know what happens when you get that new dizzy in though cause this is really starting to annoy me especially since i drive a manual i have no idea where my real rpms are because of the tach thing. and does yours only start bouncing like around 3k?

[90exkId]

yea about 2500-3000 it will start bouncing.... im gettin a dizzy from a friend so i'll let u knoe.
