Re: 86 Cutlass Ciera 2.5 TBI Code 42,35

Mine had similiar problems, mostly ran poor and would die when put into drive, turned out to be the distributor, which is where the computer gets the engine rpm signal...the pickup, module and pole piece(reluctor) are non-replaceable so it's a new distributor...2nd one in 2 years no less. I read about a bad coil messing up good distrubutors so I replaced it too. Runs great now.
