Just found out that my problem may be ignition related,I removed the belt to my air pump and the loud whirring noise went away. Apparently it had a bearing going bad. Played around with my coils/ignitors a bit and found out that my leading coil for some reason is not firing both of the leading plugs no matter what plugs I have in or what coils I have hooked up in any configuration. Im going to replace my cap and rotor AGAIN because I think they may be the culprit, there is a huge piece missing from the middle of on of the leading contacts inside the cap. I cant feel any freeplay in the distributor rotor shaft though so I dont know how the rotor managed to hit the cap. I'll post pics of it tommorow when I get to work and have a chance to pull the cap off in the sunlight again.
