thought I'd see if any one has any ideas about why my super 225 is not hitting on the front 2 cylinders. Plan to tear into it next week but am hunting for suggestions.

Try doing a compression test and see what the readings are for those two cylinders. If low, squirt some oil down the rings and see if it improves. If so, bad rings. If not, burnt valves or valve guides could be worn. If the readings are the same for both, could be a blown head gasket. How is your ignition system? Good wires? No cracks in the distributer cap? Just some ideas for you.... |

New plugs, wires, dist. and cap since it started missing, put some on on my way to Portland, the rest in Hermiston, OR. Luckly I was planning on towing it back to S.E. Arizona |

Check the Valve Lash. Plug the PCV and and hold the idle up to see if it smooths-out. It could be going lean on the front cylinders. Run a compression check. DD |
