gjc5500 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Well it was all fine. ran great. retarded my timming a tad and i started getting a VERY bad miss. so i went back to my old timing, still misses. it seems like a vac leak but i tested ALL lines/gaskets w/ carb cleaner, no change. i thot it mite be wires cuz when i played w/ my plugwires, it went in and out. new wires, no help. what could be causing this?

ab0z Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 I can't remember what that color means, but if you have a chilton manual usually in the center there are a few color pages that show all of the different plug conditions. I will check mine when I get home and post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
