Re: 82 CROSS-FIRE
Check spark plugs, they might be fouled, and it would be a good idea to change the oil ASAP

Re: 82 CROSS-FIRE
Any trouble codes from the ECM? Not too familiar with the cross fire motors but I know they're finicky. First off give it a complete tune up. If that doesn't help check for vacuum leaks. Then look at fuel pressure, timing, etc
Good luck
Alex

Replace the fuel filter if you haven't already. Run some gas cleaner through the system. You very likely have gummed-up injectors.
