Default Re: Slight miss in my 69 Z28

I would check vacuum level at idle and compare that to power valve #. I've had to change a power valve because it was too low numerically and it was leaking and opening too soon. It idled poorly and loaded up, and stumbled during initial acceleration. Now the car runs perfect. I was convinced it was a distributor vacuum /timing issue and it wasn't.
