LH 2.4 900

Symptoms were:
1. Car started easily no problem there
2. Also idled well no shaking there
3. Problem arise when you press the gas pedal engine started to shake with loss of power

You're too fixed with the 2-cylinder idea ever since you read the manual. The 2-cylinder idea is for rev-limiting function at high rpm. No, these symptoms happened at low rpm above idle. Shakes like random misfire with loss of power.

I replaced 3 caps there. I never had new junk caps as I got my supply from farnell. Unless you get your parts from suppliers with lazy old inventory then yes you might get those crappy caps. The caps I'm referring to is beyond your usual neighbourhood variety. I had to search for old datasheets of the original caps (Philips) then match it with datasheets of new caps. You need long life electrolytic caps with moderate ESR just like the originals in EZK box. Otherwise the new caps might interfere/clash with voltage regulator's function.

Yes the shakes could be from other faulty ignition components too. I did mention checking the others first before suspecting the EZK.

Just get the eBay item. Its plug n play. No overthinking required.
