mattkh 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Hi Can you elaborate on the cuuting out. Does it cough,splutter. Do the ignition lights come on. What does the rev counter show. And what spec is the car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vardo 0 Posted August 24, 2008 the rado is a 1990 1.8 16v it starts and idles no problem,and revs up but as soon as put into gear to pull away ,it kangaroo hops all the time it wont drive smooth. the cutting out problem is sorted ,it was a tear in the air intake pipe,that has been replaced,also have checked rotar arm and dizzy cap,i have changed the ht leads also but the kangaroo hopping is just as bad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
