got a miss at idle in the new daily

89 lb9. it's got fresh plugs and wires, all hooked up correctly. the miss is only occasionally. just kinda putters at idle sometimes. runs fine while driving it though. it's got a relatively fresh MAF. the dizzy cap and rotor are msd, but i noticed that i couldn't secure the passenger side very well. like it's a little loose.

could it be an injector that's not pulsing correctly? and do you think running something like seafoam through the tank would help?

Try a balance test and see if you can isolate it to a single cylinder. If not, I wouldn't worry about it too much.

how would i do this balance test? carbs are so much simpler, lol! but i will not let this tpi system beat me. i love the way it looks and this little stock 305 is pretty bad honestly
