[QUOTE="T-Rex Jeepster, post: 440023, member: 19821"] OK...Went and got a middle of the road ignition coil and got it on leaving the timing 8 BTDC...Started right up, Idled like silk and took acceleration just fine... But had a flutter whenever it got up over 1500 and stayed no matter where I held it. I'm thought it was the extra eight with valves not completely seating and causing the flutter. So I yanked the distributor again and reset it back on TDC on the compression stroke, And guess what...You betcha', Running like a brand new watch. Silky from idle all through the RPMS and no flutter when you even out the throttle. Gonna run it to work tomorrow and see for sure she holds. Thanks to MHG and Downs...I changed out all the throttle body sensors a couple of months ago so I guessing I'm good. All my stuff is in storage as far as OHM meters and specialty stuff as I'm waiting for our new house to be finished, So I'm doing this all Ol' Skool. Will buzz back when I know for sure we're dialed in... [/QUOTE]
