yeah that sounds like like your dwell is off or your points are burned...

What Meep said, when I redid the head in March(for the 2nd time in 2 years!!! :evil: ) I had to file down the points a little and adjust the dwell before it ran right. I think upgrading to electronic ignition would be a good thing to do (i'd love to do it but it seems that all the pick n' pulls in AZ have no old Isuzu's)
