Hi !
I am facing the same jhatka issue when:
1) Taking my car out from parking, have to keep hard foot on accelerator
2) Slowing down or accelerating in 2nd or 3rd gear.
3) Sometime even in 4th gear at 70 km/hr speed when lift my foot up from accelerator momentarily (due to any car slow down in front), but as i press it again, the car misses, gives jhatka.
So far i have done these:
Carburator cleaning
Complete tuning, plugs changed, points & condenser changed
Tappet setting
Coil replace (borrowed from somebody for a while but jhatka returned after 4 days)
Now mechanic says replace coil cables and cup. But i doubt the issue is due to cables.
I feel there it has something to do with fuel flow either some blockage or that excess flow due to which this babbling is occurring. And when this happens, I have noticed the fuel needle goes down.
Or my observation might be wrong.
I am tired of running to mechanic every 2 days with no solution just money and time down the drain due to hit & trial methods of mechanics. Nothing useful coming up.
The car is smoking fuel like anything.
Please guide me, as i am on the verge of changing the coil cables and cup, but dont want to spend anymore money on this 'hawai fire/hit & trial method' of mechanics anymore. Want to solve the issue once and for all.
Thanks.
