    Ok Guys I have a problem today when driving my car it started going crazy. At about 2700 rpm the tach just goes crazy and jumps all over the place and the car bogs a little but if you punch it hard the tach eventually straightens back out at around 4k and the car takes off like a rocket (well a slow rocket with a stock d16a6 that is). I think it is the Ignitor (Ignition control module or ICM)
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance-- Justin

    Take your distributor cap off and check the set screw that hold on the rotor. That what caused my tach to jump around.

    yea that little screw likes to fall out and it is a pain to find it and reinstall it. But most of you tach issues are caused by it.

    Needs coilovers and some old school fittipaldi's or something. My only problem with these threads is:

    Since when is spray-painting a car de-ricing it? The last 3 of these threads I've seen on here have all been flat black. Stay away from the spray paint import atlanta...
