My characteristic miss (at highway cruising speed as well as in gear on the brakes at a light) has happened 4 or 5 more times (individual instances of the jerk/buck) in the last couple days. Odd.
I now have yet another harness on my hands (whole engine harness for $5? OK!), and I'm thinking if I can get the garage cleaned up I'm going to totally dissect my original one and re-do the crimps and everything. "IF" I can get the garage cleaned up. And I'm still keeping in the back of my head that the aging components in the ECU could contribute as well.
New spare harness came out of a carb swapped (complete with aftermarket 4bbl intake) '85 Vic in Detroit. Had an aftermarket TV cable retrofit on the trans, and one of the emissions solenoids was spliced into with a wire going back somewhere near the fuel tank. Didn't investigate exactly where it went, just seemed like an odd thing to tap off of. Some sort of tailpipe igniter maybe?
