93 fd spuddering? help!! please

ok i thought i blew my **** up but i dont think so now cause its not smoking or burning oil. my back spark plugs are kinda dark so i thought i cracked an apex seal so i did a compression test and it was about 90. so i thought that was ok not good but ok so i thought ignition. front rotors are good both trail and lead but the back rotor lead is weak spark any thoughts and help would be great thanks

Thats better. How old are your spark plug wires? If they have been taken on and off many times, the wiring may have pulled away from the plug connector. If they are old I would replace them.

First, I would go thru everything to make sure nothing is loose. Check wires and hoses.

Have you checked the ECU to verify there are no stored ECU codes?

Didn't Autotech just blow your engine? I thought you engine was fairly new to be having 90's...

I live out towards Ramona. I'm out of town right now, but maybe I could come by. I think my buddy Mike went by to visit your ride.

The PFC has a lot of diagnostic information in it. Have you started checking what the PFC is reading for your components?
