Another problem...but this one's a biggie 200 1986

As Bruce mentioned, the breather really needs to be checked out.

You don't want to find out that you've blown the rear main a second time! Make sure the vacuum hose from flame trap housing to intake is clear- take it off and blow thru it. My 87 had a plugged one when I got it, just SOLID with crud all thru it.

The brass nipple in the intake plugs with carbon as well. Likewise the flame trap can be filthy and blocking some flow.
