Finally for some good news. I was driving around today in the 100* weather and the car was running a little hotter than normal. Usually it runs at about 190* but because of traffic it was at a hair over 210* Ive always been uncomfortable driving it hard when it is at this temp nut there were some idiots messin with me at the light so I sped off at the light. When I did this I noticed the sputtering completely disappeared I found this a little odd because just a few hours before It was sputtering a lot. Anyway, I took it up to 6K in 2nd(close to 75mph) with no hiccups at all. I thought it was just by chance but I tried it several times after that and it ean great.

Could it be that its been running too cold this whole time? or maybe I need better spark plugs. Ive been running it w/out a thermostat b/c my last one seized up on me while driving and I just havent gotten another one.
