I had my 87 5.0 vert running perfect. But it seems after I drive it for a while the timing goes out of whack.
I am positive the hold down bolt is tight and the distributor isn't moving at all.
I remove the spout and adjust the timing and it is good and runs well. I take it for a drive and it runs well for a while but then it starts not running well. I checked the timing (once again removing the spout) and it was way off again. Changed it back and all good...until the next time I drive it for a while....dejavu
So my question is: What could cause this. Could it be a bad timing chain or a problem with the distributor ?
