If he replaced the spark plug wires, recheck the firing order. 1-8-6-5-4-3-7-2 vs. 1-5-4-6-2-3-7-8 will get ya every time! Been ther done that on a dark, cold winter's night, when the correction enabled a drive to Arby's for a cheap dinner. [I can't believe I just related that 30-year-old memory. JEEZ!]

What two engines do those firing orders fit? [Question for the gallery... Make and displacements must be correct to win! (No prize but bragging rights!)]
