Martin,

Correct, I did the injectors with the covers on. I only mentioned removing them because Thomaspin's write-up recommends taking them off.

Well, time to pony up the truth for those who might follow. I should have taken the advice to replace the injectors all along but I had to learn the hard way (typical -ask my girlfriend).

Kebowers,

Thanks for the heads up on the distributor. Hot starts are usually no problem for me but I'll double check to be sure. You wouldn't happen to know which year they switched to the brass...

It does sound like a fuel delivery problem. I would be careful not to leave out the possiblity that it may be a combination of issues rather than just one. That said, if you are on you original...

Martin,

That makes sense, I think I'll stick with the simplest plan for now. I doesn't seem like it'll be tough to get back in there if its necessary. Thanks for the advice!
