So on sunday afternoon I had a couple hours to spend some time with it.
I pulled the distributor, removed the shaft, chucked it up in my lathe, cut the tack welds off and knocked the old reluctor wheel off it.
I then cleaned the shaft a little and put the spare reluctor wheel on it and tacked it in place.
I reassembled and inspected. Everything looks normal and I do not see any visible issues.
I got it started and the base timing re set and tried driving it. No real change.
The missfire is so light at idle it is hard to tell it is doing it. It is not until you start driving you can feel it. I tried moving and wiggling the wires and grounds and the ecu connectors and wires and could not get any noticeable change. However I can not do that and drive it.
I was running out of time and took it for another quick drive around the yard and the missfire was cutting in and out.
