    It just sometimes stalls suddenly. It may start after few cranks, also noticed car usually restart within 5- 10 mins tops, i already changed the fuel filter, had the gas tank drained and cleaned, sprayed the carburator with carb cleaner, changed distributor cap ( had a crack in it). The cars idling also seems erratic a times, Car runs fine, does not loose power or jerk but then it just stalls after several minutes, I wonder if my ignition coil is going bad (4 years old ata) or are there any other parts? Plan ko po:help next is to change the spark plugs and HT wires (4 years old din)

    My guess would be a failing ignition coil. When you replaced the distributor cap, did you see any oil or dirt inside? If it is dirty or if there is oil, the o-ring should be replaced.

    Dry naman po ung cap nya and no oil, just yung whitish deposits sa mga terminal sa loob, I'll try to replace my ignition coil tomorrow then.

    erratic idling - fouled spark plugs or incorrect air-fuel mixture.
