Well, I was driving around, after fixin the talon all up.
Well I come to a stop sign, and then I start to go, and i feel a complete loss of power it and it stalls out and dies.
I try to restart it and it will stay running if i give it gas while starting.

I noticed my plug wire was arcing.
My dad says this isn't the problem.
Did i jump timing?
Thanks guys.
 
Weather or not the bad wire is the whole problem or not will only be known after the wire is replaced. Obvious first, then troubleshoot.
 
Well my plug wire was arcing for quite a while, no problems.

It's ironic I went to autozone, found out I didn't have enough money for the plug wires, and this happens.
