HA I'M NOT ALONE ON THIS ONE!!! Ok... I am going to sound really REALLY lame.



1. check your air filter...



2. check terminals... (if its not a good connection you WILL run into problems... personal experience)



3. timing...



4. idle...



just some issues I had combined with a repair manual... and please note... check the inside of the terminals... if they look warn out go ahead and just replace them with new ones. I had to and my car was running just fine.

cool I think i know the idle problem, my air intake has lots of leaks in it, I just ordered a new intake should get here next week.



I am going to make a new thread and post pics of the car and the progress of my car.

That EFI cutout switch was probably to aid flooding problems, FCs flood alot with the factory junk in there.
