Icon2 Well, It's 27 years old ! LoL

Driving along the busiest highways in North America this morning, all of a sudden loss of power and dash lights came on ! So I cruised off the highway and onto the onramp to see what was up.
I found a broken msd ignition coil wire ! DAMMIT ! So with no tools on me whatsoever, I managed to stick the wire back in and try to start the car ! Luckily it started !! So I drove off trying to find a mechanic shop nearby all while the engine was misfiring like crazy ! Finally found a shop where they gave me a clip and crimping tool to use so I repaired it. Back to normal !

Seems like spark plug wires were hitting ontop of it for 20 years lol plus heat buildup.
