Hello,

My trusty 264(yes, for real) has developed a kind of hiccup. It will randomly jerk and stop. Sometimes the damn thing even burns rubber, which is quite embarrassing in a quiet residential neighborhood. This happens during acceleration, but also while attempting to drive at a constant speed.

So far I have:
-changed the fuel filter
-cleaned the fuse connections and put in new fuses
-changed the air filter

All of this has been to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas? Water in the gas tank? Ignition system issues? Anything else?

TIA
