Had an '84 pontiac that I chased a low speed miss on and finally took it to a guy who rebuilt the carb. Still had the miss when he fired it up again. Turned out to be the fuel - the car did not idle on cheap ethanol blends. Tank full of Exxon was all it needed.
I would be sure of your basics - plugs, base timing, fuel delivery, etc before chasing mechanicals. You may have already exhausted all of those, but you did not say...Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
