    Good day. Need help sa auto ko. Owner type jeep with 4k engine. Almost 2 weeks ko na hindi magamit. Last time na ginamit ko, ng f-fluctuate ung rpm gauge ko, tapos mejo pumalya ung tunog, so di ko muna ginamit. Then kahapon, pinalitan ko ng set ng spark plugs, and air cleaner, ang tagal bago umistart. Ok naman ung idling, chinoke ko pa ung carburetor, then after mga ilang minutes n naka start, biglang pumalya na naman tapos namatay. Ung old spark plugs na tinanggal ko mejo maitim ung sunog sa tip. Sa carburetor ba problem ng auto ko? or sa contact points? Ung contact point ko bago lang yun. Please help... Thanks

    b52stealth,
    how is your spark delivery? it should be bluish white from the spark plug end of the hi tension wire and capable of jumping at least 1/4 inch towards ground or engine block. if the spark is somewhat orange, the voltage is too low from the ignition coil, and the possible culprits would be your condenser, breaker point set not of proper gap and dwell, ignition coil going south, or the voltage to the coil's T15 or positive terminal is low. also, check the distributor cap for carbon tracking/cracks, check your distrubutor rotor for carbon tracking or pinholes too. by the way, neither b52 stratofortress nor is f/fa 18 hornet is stealth.

    Please check the carb solenoid if it ticks, possible na carb, kung barado, possible din na spark kung carbon fouled or oil fouled.
