Earlier my car developed a slight misfire...
I should have tuned it then.
I pulled the air filter...No help.
I managed to limp it home and put new

Wires - Warner (Bougincord - they were trashed)
Plugs - NGK (Autolite Trashed as well eroded to 0.050 gap)
Cap/Rotor Warner (probably OK)
Air Filter (UGH)
Runs great now.

One of the plugs was actually loose (Not My Fault)

Of note and an important thing to remember.
The Original Bosch distro for the 83/84 has been discontinued and is unavailable.
It has been suplimented by the later 004 distro. The rotor is different.
You need to make sure you get the correct one (1988 240 works.)
The cap interchanges.
I will put together an info thread for this later.

Thanks for all the input

Miguel
