Yep... It's one thing after another with this thing!
To start, I did the complete Vac removal like this:
And manual secondaries and took the choke out
I also have an Accel Super Stock coil, NGK Spark plugs (gapped to .045" (This problem started a day after I gapped them from ~.035")), and a flex-pipe back exhaust.
2 days ago I noticed my car would die if it got under 1300 RPMS warm, so I went on about the day...
Yesterday, it was doing the same thing, but I noticed that if I am cruising in any gear, and go from 10% throttle to 40% throttle, I can make a hesitation about twice a second, but if I go over 45%, it smooths out, and if I go below 40%, to drives fine, but I can't let the clutch out and not give it gas to keep it idling...
I plugged the vacuum line (yea, that's right, the ONLY vacuum line) and it did the same thing... Checked my spark plugs... They looked absolutly perfect, and also did a compression test... #1 162lbs #2 158 lbs #3 160lbs #4 180 lbs
Also checked my wires, cap and rotor... All were fine...
Now that I look at it, I might need to re-gap my spark plugs, but what I don't get, is there are a lot of people who gap their plugs to .050" and get away with it...
Here is a curve ball for you all; when I was doing my comp. test, I unplugged the coil wire from the coil and turn the car over, and while I was, it sparked like this: "Pow, pa pa, Pow, pa pa, Pow, pa pa" Like one wasn't firing.
