Doc; that sounds plausable. i will be checking the timing and pull the dist also. This gives me a chance to do some engine prettying up as the car still has the remnants of the squirrel nest in the engine bay, but Jeeze its gonna be 70 to 80 out this weekend. When it was raining buckets o' water all the rigs ran real nice. My 83 has a small radiator leak, the Pacer crapped out, but both my 65s run like butta. Long live the old stuff.....Russ _______________________________________________ AMC-list mailing list AMC-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://list.amc-list.com/listinfo.cgi/amc-list-amc-list.com
