can has a 208 with 186 yt head running 350 holley
recently (last week) it started to run rough. feels like it running cold, ie on take off almost dies until i give it more revs than normal and is still slugish. also when driving at a constant speed it jumps (misses?) occassionally. had a recent servie, with new hoses and fuel filter etc. no other problems to date. any ideas?
