Thanks Bill..that information helps a lot, and I agree on a roughness could be caused by the MAF screen removal. Although IIRC most found that roughness was typically at idle only.

BBoost, I Have Accel 8mm Copper Core Wires. I Did Remove Them To Wipe Them Down With Armor All. On The Way Home It Really Felt Like An Intermittent Wire Short, Missing And Hesitating At WOT and all throttle positions At Times. I Am Going To Remove And Reconect All The Wires In The AM. The Boots Fit So Tight I Cant Always Tell If It Is A good Connection. To Remedy That I Very Slightly Flattend The Wire Connectors Inside The boot. Theres Now A Firm Snap As They Go On. Also Ill Check The Metal Boot Covers Too.

Sounds like a good plan. I have heard not so good things about Accel wires and recently Bubba32176 (or whatever his number is) replaced his Accels on his truck because of a possible issue.

He noticed a better running engine with just wire replacement.

I Do Appreciate The Reply. I Found That One Of The Metal Heat Shrouds On The The Center Plug On The Firewall Side Was Touching Metal. I Removed All Three Shrouds. I Hope That Wasnt Dumb. Ill Postlater To Update After Testing It Out. Thanks!

I don't run the metal shrouds any more. With quality wires, you don't need them. I'd agree with the other Bill. Stay away from Accel wires and coils. They don't work well for us.

BillBoost, you sure diagnosed my problem right off the line! Shes All Better now. I Hope I Get To Thank You @WCBF 07 properly. WillWren. Hmm...I Dont Know What To Say. Thanks. Ill Ask Around Here To See If I Should Replace Now Or After These Are Shot. Kris
