Stupidity is one of my great qualities.

10-22-2008, 09:45 PM

I've read about other people that missed little things on thier cars and was stumped for days before figuring it out. I have had one of those moments today.

After cleaning everything from my disty to cap to rotor to coil, I was about to give up when I thought, "Hey maybe my timings off, Maybe its just advance."

Drive it down to my friends shop and he helped me remark And adjust timing (no cover). After that it drove great. I laughed on the way home being all over-dramatic over something so little and USUALLY OVERLOOKED.

Sheeeeeeezzzzzzz, next time a problem comes up, I'm just gonna go through Everything slowly. Sorry for wasting posts here with my stupidity.

dude, none of us are born experts. You asked good questions. You just made a rookie mistake. We've all done it. I know I have!
