Thanks to everyone who's responded with my 'black plug' inquiry and going to
check the valve gaps and compression tomorrow and order a
set of plug wires. I've had the car three years and didn't see in the PO's

to be retired.
St. Louis, Missouri weather is to be 60 on Saturday and 70 on Sunday 'top
down' weather
