I haven't tried any of the newer ones. I had one fail in my Lotus (Renault
engine) and in a Ford Maverick, both in the mid-70s. I haven't bought any
since. Each time they worked okay below maybe half throttle.

This is coopdog696 and I found the problems with my 1991 honda civic
dx. Well I actually took it to a repair shop. The guy who runs the
place ownes the same car and it is a street runner. Any for all you
to know while my car was puttering and not running properly was the
inginition coil was messed up. It is a very common error with these
cars. It only cost me $150 dollars. Thanks everyone
