Okay, so the line for my oil pressure gauge broke, I fixed that. In the process of fixing it though, I had to remove the distributor cap. After reinstalling everything, I started the truck to check for oil leaks and instead I came across a "ticking" sound while it was running. I tried driving it uphill (i live on a hill) and it started to "gallop" if I true going over 15 MPH. What could be causing this? My first guess would be that when I replaced the cap, I didn't align it correctly. All spark plugs, and electrical connections are exactly where they are prior to me removing the cap.
