    I'm getting a real light sputter at WOT. Air filter is okay. I just ran a little seafoam. Just put in brand new plugs. What else can it be? Fuel filter? Idk what else to try....

    Check your vac lines. Im guessing you fudged one up.

    And are your plug wires in order?

    Sorry for my ignorance which vac lines are we talking about? I never thought to check the order. I assume there is a diagram with the firing order floating around online?

    What plugs are you running? Our waste spark setup chews Bosch plugs up in record time.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    The car had Autolite XP103, several people suggested the 104s are a better bet for our cars. So I have Autolite 104s gap at .055


    I have my friend taking the car to work on Friday to look at it. He's a mechanic for a large Chevy dealer so I guess we will see.
