been waiting for an engine stumble/miss to get bad enough to warrant fixing,,,it would stumble on uphill at part throttle nearly all the time...(for a few months)

today, it felt like it was having a total miss at idle every so often, and was stumbling/missing had nearly all the time.

that feels like a big miss I thought !.. lets start with the coil, should b easy

bit tricky to get unbolted, so i just wired in a cracked old spare, and tied it on with wire

runs like a dream, no hint of a miss or stumble, engine has noticeably more power..AND up to correct temp instantly, where as prior, it had been running distinctly cool

cant say 100% for certain yet, but looks promising, old one is still bolted in, will swap them about and test
