81 cj8 258 randomly dies
scrambler
Jeeper
I have a 1981 scrambler w/ the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l 2bbl carter that will start and run great and then will die at random times. It will act like there's no spark but it will turn over with the key and almost start but die off immediately after letting off the key. I have rebuilt the carb and adjusted the vaccum hoses so it runs good... when running, also I just replaced the plugs, wires, cap and rotor. Any ideas on what the problem is?
