Here's something odd but simple to check. Pop the dist. cap back off and
make sure there's no damage to the new rotor you install. I installed a new
cap and rotor in the 318 in my old Ram (1980). The rotor must not have been
seated fully because the tab on top got mangled. It still ran, but
terrible. It took a while (and one day of completely rebuilding a carb)
before I found it. Anyway, it's easy enough to check.

Well I am going to check the plugs and wires again to make sure they are in
correctly, I also bought a new coil but did not install it, will do that
too. I will also do a fuel filter as she is due for one anyway. If there
is still no improvement it is off to an Autozone to have it scanned and
hopefully shed some light on the situation. I am not upset about spending
the money to get the exhaust done. The cat had been going bad for like 3
years and I never got it fixed and I always wanted a cat back system. I am
upset that I cannot deduce what is going on as I am usually pretty good at
troubleshoting these things.
Thanks for listening guys!
