So ive checkedabout half the forum, and still puzzled!! MAF-good i repined the plug, timing ( because it seems to missfire, cleaned out distributor, etc..... there is just one thing that mine does...... it dont stall out on lights or when i park the car and needle doesnt act wacky anymore but it still put-puts after 3klicks!! BUT!.? IF i go easy on the throttle its ok to good (most of the time) If any one, can help me, then just maybe ill still have hair!!

When i accel. normal, on 1st good2nd good all the way to red line!3rd- this is when i start having issues when the needle hits just about 3klicks (it statrts hesitating) like its either starving itself: not enough fuel, and it smells just alittle bit like gas as if it wher running rich. But id say 3500k to 4000 its like it wakes up and goes!!4th same, 5th sometimes!With all these symptoms concidered, i checked and fixed MAS plug it, wires were striped. Checked most of the vac. lines, and shows no cracks or rips. Checked groung with Ohm meter and it read 1.7 off and 0.0 when running at idle. Sometimes, it even gurgles or put-puts at 2100k like it wants to quit!

Just wondering if you have found a solution? My car seems to be doing the same thing and I am clueless.

I'd be suspicious of a messed up tps. It doesn't take long to check or to calibrate either so it shouldn't take long to do this.
