if you pull an electric wire from a spark plug and the idle does not change,
I would suggest lookng at the plugs

Subject: weird ass fuel? no combustion? problem.


ok ok.. my car took a shit couple days ago. right now, it's barely running,
no power whatsoever (literally).

compression is
160
175
180
150

on a HT motor

ok.. the weird shit is that. while the car is idling.. i unplug 2nd cylinder
wire, car is still running like nothing happened, i hear and see sparks when
i plug the wire back in. same thing for 3rd cylinder.

so. i change the wires, cap and rotor(cleaned it with sand paper).

same thing no differance. but when i try to unplug 1st cyl, the car wants to
die. i'm like ok good.. same thing for the 4th cylinder.

so that leads me to. A. fuel distributor which i have changed couple days
ago since it took a shit. B. bad injectors.

my vaccum is at 15, with the timing all the way advanced. and back fires
alot.

what do you guys think?

Thanks
Wing Gee
