    Stumble/miss on boost 850 1997


    Fixed

    Very badly worn sparkplugs, it was twice the recommeded spark gap, all the spark plugs and leads are very rusty.
    I have new ones on order, i just did a temp fix.

    Thanks

    I would replace the spark plugs first, use OEM.

      Right... If that doesn't do it go for the plug wires and distributor cap/rotor.
