Already did that. It seems better now, but still idles rough. I loosened the distributor hold down bolt and was going to turn the distributor a little to see if it was a timing issue and noticed it is already turned all the way counterclockwise. Turning it anymore clockwise makes it worse. I'm thinking maybe the cam timing isn't exactly right. It has had the head gasket and timing belt replaced in its past.I think today I will remove the hold down bolt completely and try turning the distributor a little more clockwise.If that smooths it out, I'll check the cam timing. All the ones I remember from the past, the distributors were usually nearly centered in the adjustment range.
