I had a miss and pulled each plug wire at the cap and had no change in idle on cylinders 1,4,6 and 7. Carb was just rebuilt. ?? Last edited by CHRGR69; 04/08/21 12:05 PM.

If you have power brakes, this connection has bit me more than once when the booster failed and turned into a vacuum leak.

If the conversion was recent to electronic too, then make sure not a Chinese poor quality one. Recently had one that missed fired a few cylinders. Had to change the pickup to original MOPAR and a new reluctor to fix it.
