Do you have a clear return to tank line i.e. a clear cigar hose? If you have bubbles there. fix it.

I have a wooden dowel 36" long that I put against the bone under the ear to head vibes.

Will also try the air cleaner and see how bad the air filter is

Could this be caused by an EGR valve? I don't think the 83 cars had them. Haven't checked.
