Miller lite and I decided to remove the ole p7100 and take it to a shop. Unless you guys give me a reason not to, good excuse to have the timing done I suppose, there is a brite side to everything. I went to church today for the first time since I got back from the desert, I got a warm fuzzy going on now. I am leaning towards something with the governor assembly.

The 3kGSK is badly adjusted, or installed wrong.
