Hi
I have recently replaced a fuel pump relay and an OVP, but i still can't crack a mystery which is driving me insane. The engine starts to misfire in traffic when it goes beyond 79 degress or thereabouts. This last for a few minutes until it comes back down to 79 then it clears. If the car gets really hot and goes up to 82, then it will misfire both on idol and on accelerating for a minute or two, which is making me wonder whether this is fuel related. OR could it be that when the auxilary fan starts, then current is not constant to the fuel pump relay? Are there any particular contacts i should be looking at?
any help appreciated.
many thanks from m in Beirut (and yes, things are getting very hot here so maybe my next post will be about bullet holes)
