Question Engine miss

Hey gang, I'm wondering what to look for when my 350 in missing some. If the timing is right and the valve adjust is good, what else should I look into. Thanks

Re: Engine miss

Spark plugs or spark plug wiring. Make sure the wires aren't touching the exhaust manifold.

Re: Engine miss

absolutely...with the engine running pull each plug wire off one at a time and listen for a change in the engine idle. if it doesnt change..thats your your issue!

Re: Engine miss

Don't use your hand to pull the wire off. Use spark Plug wire pliers. You could also pull the cap and make sure there is not a crack in it.
