    The first thing I'd do is replace the plugs, but get something other than Accel, which seem to be mentioned a lot when guys are having problems. I like NGK's, other than my Jeep which runs Champions. You checked the plug wires in February so they should be good. If the plugs don't do it I'd get a new coil, and probably a new distributor cap, too.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
