[DeTomaso] Pantera ignition miss diagnosis

[L GRAY]

Great find Mike. I’ve come across this so many times in the past. Spark plug wires do not last forever!
     I even had a brand new set exhibit this scenario.  I’m sure you’ve inspired a herd of owners with odd idling or misfires to look into their wires ( in the dark so you can actually see it )!

Guys,

I've been struggling with Lori's Pantera for some time. I think I have the electric choke and fast idle set perfectly, and it works fine in the garage, but on the road it stumbles and just doesn't want to idle. Last night I had to back it out of the garage in the dark. I was looking back through the window when a flash caught my eye....

This morning I fired it up with my iPhone so all of you could see it too....
