RE: Slight high speed miss sometimes

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Actually I rewired the entire car except the dome light and heater 
controls. I don't have it hooked up anyway. I grounded everything I 
could think of, even me :-) My new alternator is 90amps and I certainly 
have juice now. My gauge shows a steady 14volts almost always. I 
certainly will recheck things just for good luck but I really suspect 
the ECM. It was abused previously.
