[VintageLambo] Re: All That Work for 5 or 6 HP ? Yikes !!

I can tell you this: I had the same behaviour on my Countach QV and always thought it"s a problem of the carbs. I changed the ignition to MSD and it disappeared, nothing done with the carbs! Same on the Jalpa, I installed a MSD Coil and the engine coughes no more. The stock ignitions are providing to less spark energy to burn the whole mixtur, that"s the reason for this behaviour. With a MSD Unit, with it"s multiple spark up to 3000 rpm, the engine will burn all.
