Thanks Joel, I forgot to mention that I did check for vacuum leaks, the only piece of rubber hose is about 2 inches long at the end of a long hard plastic tube on the front side of the manifold. I wish it were that easy. I just came back from resetting the timing back to where it belongs and noticed that when I started up with the temp II disconected it ran fine. The temp sensor tested out fine with an ohm meter though. Is there a way to double check it?
