what is it doing

Tims 88GT

it feels like it has fouled plugs, maby ill put a set in, they look fine. but it starts fine, not like its rich or anything.

timing or fuel filter maybe

Tims 88GT

i can set timing to 5 degrees retarted and 15 advanced no differance, fuel filter is newer. i took the pulgs out and i droped a few so maby i broke one when i did it. [:@]

Tims 88GT

it just feel like it has a really bad miss

stanglx2002

what are they gapped at? Why did you retard the cam?

Tims 88GT

i retarted the cam just to see if it made any differance, i can go 5 retarted becasue my cam has 5 degrees of advanced gound in it, so at 5 retarted that is 0. they are gaped at whatever stock is, with the autolite pluges most of the time you dont have to do anything with them, i cant rember what they were now, .044 i think

stanglx2002

thats probably your problem the stock gap on the autolites is .040 i think and they should be at .050 with stock ignition and .054 it modded ignition. Also your timing might be still to high the stock timing is 10 degrees and 12 degrees should be good on your car

what is stock gap anyway? and also, as someone mentioned above, fuel filter is definitely something to look into... and how long have you had this problem?

Tims 88GT

i have it set on 5-6ish somewhere in their so that makes 10-12 so its close to where it should be, but i can advance it a lot or retared it to where it bearly idles and nothing changes, its a deff miss somwhere, i had this problem before with this car, and i dont know what i did to fix it one day it just went away, and here it is the other night i go to leave and its the same thing again, i think i may have a wiring issue somewhere. im going to get some plugs tonight and see if that helps. ill let ya know what happens.
