Intermittent misfire and trouble codes...

Me too the guys in the shop poked fun at me but it happens to the best of us. Just glad it wasn’t worse. I am still going to purchase the reader and dash command this weekend for future references.

Have you tried adjusting it? Unless you’re out of room to rotate the distributor (that is, it hits the upper intake), I would think that you could get it to zero fairly easily. It wouldn’t be much of a twist.

Yes and no. It was off but while trying to rotate the cap it bottomed out so the deduced it was off a tooth. I can’t recall exactly how off it was but for your case like mentioned I’d try rotating the cap some more. If you reach max adjustment and it’s still off then I’d bet it’s off a tooth.
