I think I narrowed my problem down to an exhaust issue.

The exhaust is low and bassy and it puts a lot making bubble like noises.

Also I still think the engines idling low but it does run smooth.

It once sounded like it was struggling and almost died for around 5 seconds.

I think it's also lost power but cant be sure.

Sounds like the longreach at work, check for holes in your mufflers, most likely the rear resonator. They fill up with moisture and it settles on the bottom as water.

Yeah checked it all and it looks fine.

Also cleaned the distributer cap and rotor which fixed nothing.

I'll also add that all HT leads got 7-8k and one lead got 10k.

I didn't test the coil lead.
