What would cause spark to cut out like that?

Thanks!

The corresponding dip in RPM. Looks like the CAS input skipped a tooth.

Hmm, the clip on the plug to the cas is broken. Possible from vibration it just moved causing this?

Meh, I just checked the plug and even though the clip is busted it's on there pretty snug.


Could this be an early sign that my CAS is takin a dump?

I have had both happen. The Cas would work, and not work. It kept progressing till it wouldn't drive. I have also had a wire to the cas break. It sucks.

I have been having problems with my rpm signal recently. I unplugged and plugged back in the CAS and have not had any problems for a few days now though
