Took the distributor off and cause a friend needed it to test it on their car. Once we re-installed it back it was fine for about the first 15 mins of driving. Once the car got hot it started to stutter. I had this exact stutter 3 months ago and I changed the plugs at that time and the car was fine until today. We marked the position of the distributor so I don't think timing is the issue or is it? It stutters at idel and under acceleration. Could plugs have gone bad that fast? Do I have to adjust timing using a gun after re-istalling the distributor? What stumps me the car drove fine for a little while and only started stuttering once it got warm.

 

what do you mean by stutter? do you mean bogging?

 

my car was doing the same thing not to long ago i had to change the ignitor in the distributor.

Yes - a bog... like jerking and not accelerating.

 

try and clean out the dizzy with some electric cleaner! also adjust where the dizzy is. you should be able to adjust the timign from there
