![]() Ok fellas here's one for ya. I finally got my car to pass at a Smog Test Only Center, here's my problem....... Ran like a champ b4 the smog,.... runs like crap now. I watched him pull off the timing plug ran the test put the plug back on and parked it. I get in the car and now it seems like its not hitting on several cylinders. Idles fine, but when you rev up the engine it like shakes the engine a lil bit almost like when I had a '67VW and when the points went bad It would miss. Im stumped I checked the timing and its ok. My cap and rotor look a lil bad but would that have a direct effect on my car. It only runs like crap really under load. I reset my computer and took it around the block, at first it was fine but on my second run around the block it started doing it again like its sputtering. Im gonna replace the cap and rotor but any other suggestion will be a great help. THIS CAR IS REALLY PISSING ME OFF!!!! I've never had so many problems with a FORD until I got this stang. I fix one thing something else goes its a never ending problem with this car.
