I'm talking REALLY random...this is the 3rd time this has happened this year.
Driving along, minding my own business when she will stall at a traffic-light or stop sign for no apparent reason. Repeated cranking won't start her, but twisting the throttle makes the cranking speed increase slightly...(because of less restriction?)
After a few minutes of this, I eventually dig out the tool kit and pull the spark plug...looks fine, looks normal.
Exchange for "spare" spark plug in tool kit...starts!
When I get home, I replace the "spare" spark plug for the original...she starts and runs for another 6 - 8 months without a hiccup.
Suggestions?
