Can Anyone Help?

My son-in-law has a Dax Cobra that has a miss-fire(probably). He just does not have the time to look at it and wants to get someone to look at it ASAP.

He lives in the Winchester area so could take it to someone around Southampton.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Richard.

Tell him to start it at night in the dark and look at the spark plug wires, he could have arcing across a couple of leads.

Shows easily as a spark show and by moving a couple of wires he could save a trip to the garage.

It may be useful to know what engine the car is using and possibly what induction & ignition systems used in case something specific/specialist.

Thanks and good suggestion. I should know but I think it is a Chevy 350 with Edelrock carbs.
(The problem is he has so little time at the moment running his business that he just wants someone to sort it.)
