    Started about a month ago. Feel like it was sptting and sputtering. Soon after, just wouldn't start. Finally got it running made it to an exhaust freind, had the converters cut out and it ran fine for about a week. Then back to square one. If it sits for a couple of days it won't start. Let it sit and that afternoon it will chug a lug but it will finally start. Then when it I drive for about 20 min. it'f fine. Early cool morning difficult to start. Late after noon warm day starts right up. Runs like crap but it runs. Then when I drive it for about 20 min. it clears up and runs fine. Like it's cold natured almost...I'm gonna do a fuel pressure check on the pump and then I'll have a better idea. yeh, I changed the complete firing sys. distibutor cap & rotor button, plugs, wires, all that jazz.
