Looks like I had another hidden issue. I noticed a small tapping noise coming from the driver's side bank of cylinders today when I was going to a buddy’s house to adjust the idle mixture screws.
The tapping noise sounded like plastic on metal, not the sound I have heard from detonation in the past. The noise got louder, and the car finally started to lose power. I was able to get it home, where I realized my distributor hold down was lose
, so I am not sure if the distributor was moving or not. The wires look good, and appear to be seated on the plugs.
The one odd thing I noticed was when it started to run crappy and rough, I went behind the car and could hear a serious change in my exhaust sound. The car actually sounded smoother and reminded me of what a Honda would sound like.
I believe I may have a bad plug, although they are only 1.5 years old. I have autolite 25's in it and hope to put some 24's in it tonight after work.
I will say this, I have pretty much eliminated the Trans and t.c. from the shutter problem now. I also had a slight backfire out the exhaust while I limped the car home, going down a pretty good sized hill.
