My big beastie...my Wolseley 6/99 decided to die on me yesterday...rebuilt engine mind you. Anyway we tore apart the carburettor checking for water, negative, checked the plugs..nothing wrong there, but it was only firing on 4 cylinders. Changed all the leads...no change, tore the distributor apart and cleaned everything.contacts the works. No change.....hubby washed the dizzy cap. Now #2 and #6 weren't firing, and as luck would have it...(side entry cap)those two leads were the top two leads....and a hairline carbon arc line was detected. We think we found the problem. All we have to do now is find another Lucas dizzy cap for a wolsely 6 cylinder C series engine, side entry cap. Can anything else go wrong with this POS? I love her when she runs..but otherwise can be a cantankerous old bitch. (hope cars can't read, she'd be devastated)
