Remi I had one cable fail right under the metal clamp due to vibration. That 
is a bad design because the cable can vibrate free for about 8 cm and then 
is hold very tight with that clamp.

I replaced that part of the cable with teflon coated and applied a few more 
fasteners to prevent strong vibrations. Also, I de-vibrated the prop which 
was a major step forward !

Also check other sources such as the health of the ignition modules and the 
hall sensors on the back of the engine.

All the best,

Thomas, N81EU
