Coil or Condenser you decide
So long story short bus runs fine for about half hour then when accelerating say up a slip road or out of a bend or de restiction it hesitates/stumbles a bit like it's missed fire maybe then as soon as the rpm picks up a little perfect.

Re: New site feature: Buses in a place.
It should also have a section called buses of shame, you upload a photo of your bus if you break down on the way to the location and can't fix it
