Hi,
Here is my first question to this list, which I'm not sure I even belong
to (you decide - have an '88 RR with a '63 buick 215 v-8 block). I
posted this already to the LRO list, but in case I don't get response, I
need help so here are the details:
Yesterday as accelerating on the highway, noticed the RR was "missing" a
bit. Couldn't hear anything, just felt some intermittent minor loss of
power every several seconds or so. Drove home about 3 miles and popped
the hood. Looked right at the spark plug wires thinking one might be
loose, and instantly noticed one sitting cock-eyed. Lifted it up, spark
plug is basically eroded away and all that is left is some turqoise
colored residue/dust crap. Not knowing if this is like a majot thing -
I went in to tell Caveman (affectionate name for husband) who shook his
head and said "take it to the dealership". I asked if I could just put
in a new sparkplug and he
muttered something about detonating the cylinder. So..... I drove it
back to work this morning and it behaved the same way. What is up?
