Fw: Runability



Chris,

CO and HC's are ok at an idle, but it is at 3K rpm that I have the problems.
Maybe one of the injectors is messed up because it feels like I loose a
cylinder but it doesn't miss.  More noticeable in lower gears than higher
ones.  Maybe my computer is screwed!!  Any other ideas???  TIA!!

Dave
