Nuisance problem solved!
I have had an ongoing problem with a miss when climbing hills. I has been solve! Well, it hasn't come back yet anyway. I recently read a thread that said the the pcv valve on the truck style efi manifold is plumbed into the back of the intake manifold directly inline with the #8 intake runner causing some problems with the #8 cylinder. Made sense to me so I removed the stock plumbing and replaced it with a hose to the vacuum tree in the middle of the manifold and Voila! no more miss! It has been 2 weeks now and so far it has not returned. Unfortunatly I cannot find the author of the post to thank him so hopefully he will read this and consider him self thanked for solving a 10 month old problem! Keep up the good work. It sure beats taking it to the shop as I am sure they would never have found the problem and would most likely dissagree with the fix that I did.
Thanks again, SR.
