March 4th, 2009 10:47 AM #1Patanong naman: our '89 Corolla XL seems to ruin contact points at an alarming rate -- around 3 - 4 in less than a year. Kakapalit lang ng contact point a few weeks ago, and now i notice na hindi pino ung takbo -- parang bumbugso bugso ung takbo -- we suspect it's the contact point again.
i've been using original Toyota CPs since way back, so i doubt if it's substandard quality. i suspect that the busted CPs are just symptoms of a bigger problem. Any thoughts?
Also...suspetsa ko this is just kuwentong barbero...somebody told me that problems with the CP are the usual causes for cars to catch on fire; totoo ba to?

March 5th, 2009 12:36 PM #4i haven't had the time to take a look at the CP...will do mamaya
come to think of it, i can't remember the last time the condenser was replaced; could a faulty condenser be wrecking the CP?
magkano po kaya to convert to electronic ignition?
Kwento ng katrabaho ko, meron daw sya officemate dati na Italiano na tinanong daw bakit...
