I had a similar problem with our Series V. The problem turned out to be a
bad engine-to-chassis ground. The original braided ground strap is located
under the car and attaches at the transmission mount. Ours was really greasy
and gunked up.
Another option (and less work) is to add another ground in the engine
compartment from the chassis to the engine.
