Well I finally got the car running right. I replaced the distributer and recleaned the MAF. It fixed the problem!!! :banana: :banana: :banana: Since its stock timing it doesn't feel as strong but it drives good.

On the cable, I had ordered one Sunday and paid for 2nd day shipping. So after today being wednesday I hadn't received nothing I contacted 50resto.com. I was infored that my order didn't go thru :bang: :bang: Any how I went junkyarding. After ripping of 2 cables. 1 of a Taurus and a V8 thunderbird. I made the thunderbird work on my car :banana: :banana: :banana: It was so simple. Thank god I didn't pay 100 bucks for that piece of ****!!!!

Glad ya got it running good:nice: , I got burned by 50resto the same way you did on several hundred dollars worth of parts, I just told them to cancel my order, they acted like the were in total shock that I wanted to do that but I couldn't wait around on them anymore, I just ended up buying everthing locally.
