    think it needed a tuneup?

    I got the tuneup done on the '91 this weekend... plugs, wires, and gas filter... (Going to do the Sea Foam this week sometime) here some pics of one of the plugs... Think it needed new ones????




    Honest there IS a gap there!!!

    The other side of the same plug...
    It is a wonder it drove as nice as it did... didn't even miss....

    But I can tell a BIG difference....

    That is exactly how my plugs looked when I went to pick my car up in KC. They expected me to just jump in the car and drive it back to Wisconsin. I checked compression and that is when I found low cylinders. Good thing I brought a trailer.

      Tune up

      Well, the compression is fine... I guess after about 3 years... (At least, this is the first tune up I did on this car...) the small amount of oil blow by fouled them out....
