much easier to read.......if typed like this....... huh huh huh looks like a simple crack in the posative clamp and a measly $1.89 from lordco and fired up like a dream. now all i have to figure out is the stutter at 3200 rpm. it only happens if im off of the gas and letting the engine slow the car down without the brakes. ( if that makes any sence????) any ideas on that one???? |
