Ok guys, since i got my truck together everytime i start it up it runs fine but within the first minute or so it sputters and runs on 3-4 cylinders. The vacuum gauge drops considerably and stays until its back running to normal. I've recently installed a new air filter, coil pack, and have 8.5mm wires and new NGK plugs on the way from summit racing. Any ideas on this? Thanks

retrace and double check them all....there is several.

there is one on the back side of the head (PS) that maybe a issue..think'n that it is for the ignition module.

also there is one from the battery down to the frame (also PS) this may continue to the block.

1 over by the coil.
also 1 on the upper intake

take your time look them over very carefully
