Mis-fire (was: have I missed something?)



jim..you may have something here...the EGR valve along with all its related
hoses are original....i do have weak acceleartion, i do have rough idle
..all symptoms of EGR problems..Brad also mentioned checking the vacuum
advance..perhaps it ain't so odd after all..and get this..my a/c blew air
even under acceleration today..something it had not done in
weeks...coincidence or related? that is why i love these cars..will keep you
advised..thanks!
