 Are you referring to the ignition switch?=C2=A0 I had to replace the switc=
h on my TR6.=C2=A0 It would cut out at speed on the highway and I had to wi=
ggle it to restore power to the coil and make it go again.=C2=A0 Meantime t=
he exhaust would fill with unburned air/fuel mixture and when the power was=
 restored "BANG."
Oh, and the overdrive would drop out making matters all the worse.
