Subject:      Billy won't run
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I drove around for about half hour last night and Billy ran worse and worse.  By the time I got home it would barely run.  This morning when I tried to start it, it starts, revs up, then immediately dies.  No way to keep it running.  I pulled the plugs and they were wet and black (less than 100 miles on them).

I switched the idle control valve and idle control stabilization unit (near the taillight) from my perfectly running 87 GL and no change.

Help.
