thanks again!i will try the compression test.i took plugs out and ran it,put thumb over spark plug hole.seemed to have good compression but have not done it with gauge.im gonna start simple and look at plug wires although it seemed to be firing ok just laying against the block.really didn't think I had a major issue at first but like I said the car rocks like its running rough but hear no skipping in the back and it runs good on the road although it is a bit cold natured it seems.i can hear some tapping but figured with solid lifters it would do that some.really just started looking into it.but the rocking got me going.then when I pulled the wires and it didn't change engine rpm I knew something was up..ill keep u informed..thank u for the advise..all my other cars something like this has been electrical like a wire or cap.i did notice a couple of the pickups in the cap looked a little worn or burnt..ill let u know!...Dan
