(It was almost 1:30 am.) Any thoughts on these results? She has been running ok, but with a slight miss. However, I found a plug wire (to #3) that was missing the piece inside the insulation that connects to the distributor cap. It was firing by arcing across the gap!!! Obviously, plug wires are on order. _____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Free instant messaging and more at http://messenger.yahoo.com |
