Sorry thought I put that, is that a normal idle for 88? She is runnin rough, when I have her in park and I accelerate to 2k she shakes Nd doesn't feel she is runnin on all cylinders, I have another thread on this, I think it's titled sputtering. But today when I revved her up and let off she had a small back fire from the tail pipe
