Yes, the valves are adjustable. It’s still in the shop getting put back together. Might as well have them check. I’ve gone this far...

Just to bring some closure here, when tested, engine compression read at 90/90/120/90 across the cylinders. Its probable this is the cause of the misfire and the bogging at 3000 rpm, and inability to rev past 5000 rpm under load. Up for sale soo will be a 99% complete, refurbished car with a barely beating heart and lots of spare parts.

Thanks for all your input guys.

I’m done with it. It’s going up for sale on eBay shortly. Maybe someone with more time and energy can figure out this problem.

Hello folks. Well, I think I've just about had it. I received all the o-rings, replaced them all. I cleaned the the FIT, and adjusted it to what I the measurements I think make sense based on how the valve opens and closes. Still has the surging idle. Still bogs down at 3k, will not rev past 5k under load. After a few minutes, the PGMFI light comes on.

 

To add insult to injury, there is a rattle that sounds like it's coming from the distributor...

 

I've sunk so much time, money, and effort into this thing, and it just doesn't want to run right. Very depressing.

Tested the TDC/CYL sensors today and both test dead center within the resistance specification.

Running out of sensors to test.
