Hi all new member here
I have had a intermittent problem with my 92 TDM for a while, it felt like it was firing on 1 cylinder, so I would have the throttle wide open to compensate the lack of power, then when the other one kicks back in you take off like a rocket!
I've swapped the coil, plug tops, plugs, done the valve clearances as they were due and now I think I've tracked it down to the little pickup coil as I am getting a funny spark pattern when turning the engine over.
This has been tested as per the haynes book of lies and it apears its shorting out! however, you cant buy these little buggers on there own, you need to buy the whole alternator for 500 quid!!
Any help or info on getting one of these little blighters or refurbing the one I have would be great.
Thanks
