Nug Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 '85 RX When I turn the key off, it sometimes continues running for a couple more seconds. Not dieseling, but running normally. The tach jumps around some, too. Also, as I was working on the horn today, I turned the ignition on. The tach jumped a few times, the was a faint clicking sound, and the engine jumped, like the ignition coil just fired a bunch of times and the engine had turned some. Does this happen to anyone else? Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erik litchy Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 sounds like a bad ignition switch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 sounds like there is something funny on the crank angle sensor maybe as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Ah sorry Will, 85 RX = non crank angle distributor I might favor a sticking ignition relay. The fire of a cyl upon ignition "on" is normal. the engine only stops at four positions all yield a pistion ready to fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJM Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Ah sorry Will, 85 RX = non crank angle distributor my 86 has it? I can take the dizzy out and turn it with the ignition on and the Fuel Injectors and coil will fire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
