tune needed
Hey all just bought a 91rs with a 350tpi swap, It runs but not good at all. That's why I got it so cheap, the guy gave up. is there anyone in or close to Salisbury that can help me get it tuned in. Heres what im told its a 355 with mild cam. the car does run just rough. please let me know if anyone can help me out. I am no kind of mechanic and don't pretend to be. Maybe a chip needs to be burned or something???

Re: tune needed
Start with the basic stuff.
Fuel pressure and quality of spark.
Then check for vacuum leaks, compression pressure.
Check codes.
But really, if you are not a mechanic, and you don't want to trial-and-error all sorts of things, don't you think you'll save money in the short-run to simply take it to a reputable shop, and have them evaluate it?
You might have bought it for cheap.
Not likely that its going to be cheap to own.
