Doesn't seem like anything too major but wanted to post and ask since I have no manual to troubleshoot from.
1) Car dies sometimes when I slow down to a stop-not very often does not do it when.when I throw up a rev or it's just idleing.
2) noise from behind timing cover(not coming from engine), slight inconsistent knocking noise at idle, my it sounded like plastic, not metal just tapping under the timing cover, goes away after 600-700 rpm
3) Today it was cutting out at full throttle at higher rpms...slight sputtering a bit around 4500-5500 and then continuing to accelerate. when I was trying to show my this it started running hot(3 lines below red) when I stopped after puching it through 3rd gear. Put the heater on and it went back down to normal also a little blue smoke, it was hot as shit today also and it seemed the heat was making my car run worse.
I CHECKED THE PLUGS AND they were not that bad none were blackened or damaged, all were firing. THEY WERE GAPPED AT .040 I gapped them down to .025-my mechanic gave my this number.
on the way home after regapping the plugs it did not cutout like that anymore but did cutout completely for a split second in 3rd gear at 5500rpm but the kept going smoothly up to 6500<-that felt like fuel cut.
ON THE WAY HOME...NOTHING no smoke no overheating smooth at full throttle cept for 3rd gear cutout which felt like fuel cut.
ANY INPUT ON ANY OF THIS SHIT WOULD BE COOL. THANKS
