I'd bet money that your problem is a vacuum line being loose or routed wrong. Will the car idle once its warmed up fully?
im not sure, i didnt want to run it very long if something wasnt right so i dont know. i will defentily check all of my vacuume lines first, then time the distributer at 3000 rpm to 23 degrees. and vdubr928, thanks for the timing pics and info, ill send you an email right now. i have vacuume line diagrams in my owners manual, on the underside of the hood, and in the parts manual here on pelicanparts. i dont have a factory manual. can you also tell me what degree it is supposed to be on at idle? i know 23 degrees when the distibuter weights are in the out position but what about at idle so i can check it there too just for a double check? i have a good friend whose dad is a mechanic and has a timing light, i would buy him a 6 pack but im only 20 haha and i dont think he drinks.

thank you all for your help
