Pissed off with motor, want to change

What was your timing set at? Are you sure the dust. Gear was installed correctly? It should point to the contempt drivers intake manifold bolt. If these check out, the pulling 1 plug wire at a time, see if can be isolated to one cylinder, or if it is totally random.

Just to be sure, I turned the motor to #1 TDC and aligned the timing marks. The rotor is pointing at the #1 cylinder on the cap. And my #1 on the cap is just left of center. The weird thing is that it was running beautifully before the wash. I just can't believe it would be timing or a misadjustment. You would think the problem would have been there all along if that was the case.
