Re: slow ride (redux)

what a swing, below zero one week and in the 50s today. I swapped plugs and wires and went for a blast.



runs better than ever, keeping up with traffic


still chasing a high rpm lack of power, wants to rev to 5k or so. I think maybe the fuel filter is clogged up from a few idle years. I'll try changing it out tomorrow.

edit: well reading online it seems like maybe the timing chain is the problem, it may have skipped a few teeth and is retarded. I am going to order a timing kit since the donor S10 has 114k and should be replaced anyway.
