Accessory belts are back on, fuel distributor is bolted back down and connected to the lower boot. I haven't reconnected the air filter, etc...is there any reason why that would make it run poorly? Because it's sort of cycling between running normally and sputtering. I have a video that I will post as soon as it gets uploaded from my phone.
My other annoyance is I have a steady drip of coolant. The point it which it drips off is on the oil pump, but it's definitely running down the side or front of the engine from some place higher. It also was doing this with the engine off, probably a little faster with the engine on. I can't find the source. Had I just replaced the water pump, I would suspect that, but I didn't! And it wasn't doing this before I started work. Surely this is not karma kicking my butt for not replacing the water pump already?!
