Blown apex seal?
Blown apex seal?
The car is an 88 FC N/A. 157k miles. The car was had by an old guy who took very good care of it.
Altenator belt needed replacing so I did that. I'm driving the car down the road, just to make sure the battery gets back a charge. Nothing crazy, I'm going down hill decelerating, and it feels like I hit a fuel cut. Enough to jerk me forward in the seat. It seems fine I go down the hill to my apartment.
As I make the turn in it dies. I start it back up and it has a horrible idle with vibration. It feels like its only running on 1 rotor. We replaced the plugs, and cleaned the TB. We are changing the fuel filter today. I'm begining to think its a blown apex seal, but havent down a compression check yet.
Is there anything else this could be besides that?

Will try when I get home tonight. The altenator is good, I drove it 150 miles before the belt broke. Forgot to add that.
