HELP ! Some sort of engine problem..

[flaatr at yahoo.com (Euroroc II)]

Identical problem here except it was the plug on the hall sensor 
(distributor) on my 8V... Julie asked a good question. If the tach drops at 
the same time this happens check your ignition. If the tach still reports 
that the engine is turning check the fuel pump...
