Update 200 1983

posted by  someone claiming to be cdcrawford on  Wed Sep 20 13:08 CST 2017 [RELATED]

Thanks for all of the good ideas.

I discovered something this morning that I had not noticed before: rowing up through the gears it will not rev over about 4,200-4,300 rpm. In my driveway, in neutral, it hits 5,000 but doesn't sound quite right.

This car has the crappy Chrysler ignition and I wonder if the timing is not advancing correctly. How do I check this while driving?
