So i've been driving it to and from work for little over a week runs great , till last thursday when it develobed a really bad stutter , so i put a new fuel filter, cap, rotor and went ahead and bought a set of the new E3 plugs , and WOW! what a difference i gained back so much power it's retarded. the E3's are basically a really cheap version of Pulsars i'm still running a little lean up top so i got to figur that out but otherwise all is good.

Its probably leaning out on top because the AF is good at idle and lower RPMs. Thats one of the flaws with basic. We could figure out a way to wire up CIS-e again or even something newer, OR you could just shim the dizzy and get more fuel pressure. The only thing is, in stop and go traffic, the richer bottom end makes for horrible gas milage.  Glad to hear you even have it running better! And about the idle, I am pretty sure the ISV or Idle control valve or whatever is bad. Since I deleted all of that mess on my truck it idles better than ever before... Thats just running on idle set scre and timing. You just have to pump the pedal some when starting... no biggie there!
