Default Re: car not running well (93hatchdude)

well i think i figured out most of the bugs... put a new o2 sensor on, new fuel pump, new fuel filter, found 2 vacuum leaks, and the biggest... oil is getting inside the distributor. buying one tomorrow and putting a new o-ring on it to see if that helps. IF this does not work then i dont know what else it could be ecu is correct and it is not bad. all wire connecters have been cleaned today and di-lectric greae in.
