[T2] Hiccuping Engine

[Bob Pratt]

Myles died 1/2 mile from home today and I had to call AAA. There is plenty of fuel to the fuel pump and the pump is doing its job.
He tried to start a number of times if I waited a few minutes between each try.
I'm going to change the condenser in AM. If that doesn't work, I'll look at the coil to see if I'm getting spark and go from there.
