Remove fuse to clear but stays on. has1 of those slide switches but stays on. low amp probed distr wire sig to ecm didnt have any drop outs. lab scoped coil kv lead to cap and see lots of drop out. im i looking in right direction? it also has an external igniter and a noise supressor, what to check next or over again? thanks jack

spray some carb cleaner and look for an intake leak, or other vac leak.

they are lucky their problem is a low idle miss.
