Fired up the car today and it was running really rough. Skline came over and pulled the wires off 1 and 2 and there was no change. Its got hydraulic lifters, could it be they are all collapsed on the one side? It gets gas, and its got spark. I guess the next step would be compression check and pull the vavle cover to see if they are functioning? Any ideas???
