Dear Mr. Ditch-digger,
It sounds like you cam position sensor might be a tad out of whack
(technical speak). Bernd e-mailed the list with a procedure a couple of days
ago, try doing that first. It could also be a lean condition, make sure you
are using a 360 computer and a set of 24# injectors. Good luck..........I'm
still waiting for the praise and admiration...............
