Default S2 holds back ???

What do you think is wrong with my RST S2

Q It has plenty of power but does not accelerate smoothly, it judders no matter what gear I am in. Any ideas where to start looking to cure this?

Forget the fuel sensor, look at basics like leads/plugs, and ignition side of things first.

Take ur dizzy cap off n have a look inside the cap n check ur rotor arm. Use a bit of sand paper or a small screw driver n scrape the 4 bits in the cap.(thats if they are a bit corroded)
