[Old Henry]

I decided that maybe I hadn't pushed all of the spark plug wires all the way into the distributor cap but far enough that each showed continuity with my ohm meter but maybe not far enough to carry a full spark. So I Marked all of the wires at the top of the socket, pulled out the most offending one, number six, measured the depth of the socket to compare the depth that the wire was pushed in and, sure enough, it was only about halfway. I then pulled out the rest of the wires, none of which were pushed all the way in, greased the sockets, and kept pushing each one till it got to the bottom hoping that would fix my problem. Unfortunately, although it eliminated the slight stumbling of #7 & 8, it didn't help number three and six which are still only sparking erratically. Oddly enough, both of those are next to each other in the distributor cap. I'm still waiting for a new cap to replace the one I have engraved terminal numbers on, hoping that will fix it. If not, I have no other ideas.
