Once warmed up my car starts to break down under acceleration, it feels like something is cutting out. The ignition is all new FBO high output stuff. I cahnged the coil which worked well for about 10 mins before the problem reemerged. Since then ive changed the distributor and the ECU without any positive results. I even looked under the hood in the dark to see for electrical tracking, nuthin.
Any suggestions? Its getting me down.
 
I had a similar problem that was caused by a bad dist. It had weights sticking and bouncing aroud in it and the pick up had a bad connection in it. Change of dist. and prolem went away. That was just me though.
 
Yep, i changed the dizzy, i have a less than secure connection at the Ballast resstor, so i'll heck that next.
 
Did you replace the plug wires when you installed the FBO system? I know Don said that lesser wires will arc out badly.
