Haven't had much time to get out there and look at it but I do think that I'll start with replacing the filter. There's a large chance the filter is clogged, so I don't see why not. And it hasn't been changed in ages. Literally. After that, if that doesn't fix it, I'll set my timing up. It's on 10 BTDC right now as was suggested when I looked up the crate engine information. I'll mess with it and see what works best, because the throttle response was a bit delayed. Also, I thought the transmission kickdown was only for passing gear? I don't have it hooked up at the moment. That'd do it? I'll take the steps that magwakeenercew2jh suggested if those things don't fix it..
