Default Re: Stumbling, hunting and missing

Thanks! I'm in the midst of the trouble shooting now since it's lunchtime. My son is sanding a bunch of drawer fronts in the shop so I'm gonna sneak out and do the vacuum test. Maybe a compression test for yucks. I honed the cyls (no ridge) and put in a set of hastings rings, new valves, lifters and guides, ground and lapped seats and had crank turned /new bearings about 3000 miles ago. My wife was heading to town so I called napa and they had the FA54 condensor in stock, so she's picking one up just in case I start chasing ignition.
