hesitation



i hate to say it, but ist probably an intermittent open somewhere (i know, not
really specific enough, is it?). if it does it just after start-up, i'm thinking
its something temperature sensitive. distributor rotor could possibly be
breaking down, or the coil. i would say a plug, but one single plug wouldnt last
a full 1/4 second.
