Default She's running better :)

Our 95 has 77,000 miles and was idling and running bit rough. Just got done installing MSD 8.5 wires and a new set of AC plugs, and q-tipped the MAF sensor. She's purring real smooth now. :)

The plugs that came out were gapped from 075 to 095 :eek: Stock gap is 050. Whata difference :cheers: :cheers:

Tomorrow night I start on the Edelbrock IAS shocks. :)

Nice job! That yellow vette was sweet to look at while caravan'ng during Stars and Stripes.

Just curious... how much skin is left on your right hand after going after that passenger side plug near the firewall?

:lol:
