Have a mysterious problem. The engine bogs down in all gears at low rpm. When it does this, it sets up a vibration. The mystery is that it didn't do this before I had a new rear end put in it. My first thought was that it wasn't a 373 like the original. But that's not it. The thing has absolutely no power at all, and when the a/c is on, well, you get the picture. The car is an 81 245 with 4-speed plus overdrive. I run mid-grade gas in it. Tank has been cleaned, new injectors and seals, new fuel filter, new oil breather box. Would appreciate some guidance.
