97 VT 5 Litre.
Been trying to sort out a problem with my engine.
To cut to the chase, I've found that when I connect the timing light to the leads on the left bank,
there's no light. The right side is ok.
It does idle ok and I'm thinking it's a weak spark on that side, that's why the timing light doesn't flash.
The engine does jerk a bit under load, as if there's a slight miss.
And does find it hard to come off idle unless I gently apply the throttle.
I'm tending to lean towards the ignition module, as the 5 litre only has one coil.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.
