from hear-say, people say that when you sit in a American muscle car with a 440 V8 and it's idling, you can feel the car sway from side to side...well thats a symbol of power , but like the same thing is happening to my car and i KNOW its not supposed to....why is this happening?

Got a strange idle? Or is it more of a "something ain't tight under there" thing.
If you lived in CA, I'd say it's probably just another earthquake. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

Not firing on all 4???? Check your ignition wires for good connection in the end adapter. Sometimes the solid core wires can start arcing and burning the connection.
