    Hello all,

    I have a 77 Maverick and I recently changed the distro cap, plugs and wires. I also installed a new water pump. After all these changes...I am having an uneasy idle that wasnt present before. I got the wires and plugs checked and all seems to be fine. I also had the carb adjusted and it seem to work a little better, but not much. Any CLUES???

    An "uneasy idle" isn't a lot of information. Does it miss? does the idle go up and down? does the idle speed change occassionally? What is an "uneasy idle"?

    I was able to fix the "uneasy idle". There were some gapping issues and also i adjusted the carb.
