I have an 88 245 w/ 5spd. It starts easily and idles perfectly, but after several minutes of running, it begins missing and running terribly rough under acceleration. If I stop, it continues to idle fine, but under load it is bad. It will do this for a while then run fine - sometimes without issue once its smoothed out. Overall this issue seems to be getting worse and don't know where to start.
any insight?
Thanks,
Geoff
