> I reset the valves  to .012  inake & .014 exhaust.

> Better, but still skipping.
> I went on the electrical hunt:
> Changed Plugs, still skipping.
> Changed plug wires, nothing yet.
> Changed distributer cap. Some improvement,  At least car could go down the 
> Street.
> Went about 10 miles,  Alternator light started coming on, started skipping 
> some more.
> There still doesn't seem to be any spark in # 2 cylinder.
> At least when I unplug # 2 theres no difference.
> If  I unplug any of the other spark plugs the idle changes.

> Running out of ideas
