i have two 460s, one pos ('89) and another awesome one ('94)...the good one i dont have to monkey around with it, but the pos has always got me tickering around with it...even physically looking at it and hearing it run i have trouble diagnosing problems so over the net i think it is a lot harder...try the 385 series engine forum

from my experience the motor is a lot stronger in the morning because of the higher idle...check and perform the normal things like tune-up, air filter, vacuum lines and if anything clean the idle air control valve
