Re: running problem now

I'd check for the essentials first, Make sure its getting fuel, Clogged filter can make it do that. I always check the simple stuff first and 9 times outta 10 its something easy.

Re: running problem now

Simple things first, check your plug wires make sure none are loose, is the distributer tightened down, see if you can move it.
