[s-cars] New faltering problem

[dgraber460 at aol.com]

After reading a few of your posts it occrredu to me that what you are experienceing is the same thing my car has been doing since the 1.8 coil swap. If I let it warm up a few minutes it runs fine. There was some list talk of other cars doing the same post 1.8 swap, but I never saw anyone post a resolution.

Anyone ever figure that out? Maybe the same culprit?

Scott may have put the fuse location info in his website but that doesn't mean I could find it there. Where is that bugger??

Needless to say, the new OXS did not help at all. So much for my failing sense of humor, Tom. ;-)?

As per other suggestions, the fuel pump is virtually brand new - less than 1,500-2K miles on it. I guess that doesn't mean automatically that it is good but that would put it quite a way down on the list of suspects.?
