was running great.... 36K miles - tune up.. replaced plugs, rotor botton and cap. now runs but still a dog.. was great 6 months ago.. smells of unburnt fuel... changing the above- would it change the timing ? should I also change plug wires?
What year is engine?

How often do you drive the mobil house? Old gas could be the problem. If you don't drive it at least once a week gas can get nasty. I put Stabil in my 55 Chevy and the wife's motorcycle -Lawn Mower and such. I had a problem with the 55 three carbs nasty inside-electric fuel pump-blew two starters off-the carbs float stuck and I had to change oil three times ten quarts each time. I put stabil in and no problems since. 55 has 454 mark 4 in it. Good Luck -------Wayne
