Half miss? Why?

This would beon a midly built 318.

Actually I can not to put my votes on any of them... twice chromed going bad in a row. One completely died, the other one allmost to die, it has same simpthoms

a friend of mine who got same deal with orange box. He made to fix. It looks is a VERY SIMPLE FIX, is internal ground related... stay tuned!

sorry but i dont know why the half miss at idle is there, but the few ive used are like that

i have used alot of them + once in a blue moon 1 may go bad

i would recommend carrying an extra int he glove box, + if its only going on a mild 318, youd probably be better off with the orange box
