OT Headgasket job prob

[jlagnese@massed.net (John Lagnese)]

More strangeness, the car only runs poorly with the plug wires reversed. I
even took the timing belt covers back off only to find everything is fine.
All marks line up nicely. The rotor is in the #1 position. Not even a peep
with the wires on correctly.
Cluelessly yours,
John
