Check the black plastic intake snorkel between the air filter housing and the throttle body for holes, leaks, or cracks. Check vacuum hoses for any leaks. It would be even better to measure manifold vacuum. Check ignition base timing. Check the condition of the spark plug wires, rotor, and cap (if it has a distributor). -- Ray O (correct punctuation to reply)

Or is that applicable to this year/model? -- Heaven is where the police are British, the chefs Italian, the mechanics German, the lovers French and it is all organized by the Swiss.
