Quick motor question?
Is it possible for a motor to start good, idle good, and even rev good with 2 plug wires switched, but then pop a little when put under a load? Is it possible for it to run down the road decent?

Cylinder 5 & 7 can be switched (assuming this is a gm v8) and it will idle relativly smooth but has a misfire (pop) when accelerating.
At least, those are the most commonly switched wires. |
