My last post described my 82 dieing while driving and then started on the first try once I stopped. I have since noticed that it is indeed missing periodically. I have narrowed it down to only when I have been driving 20min or more around town and it is under a load. I thought I was going to breakdown a mile from work because I got nothing when I hit the gas, so I pulled over and it idled fine. I reved it a bit and didn't notice anything. I then pulled back onto the road and it ran OK, only missing a few times. I have shells for my shotgun or order and will be replacing the cap. rotor, wires and plugs this afternoon (I am travelling and have limited tools, I can do these replacements in 1hr at my hotel). Any thoughts on what else to check or replace?? David PS. I tried the WD-40 to check vacuum leaks and didn't seem to find any, so either WD-40 doesn't work very well or I don't have any big leaks.
