New here with a question on my '86 C4. I have owned the car for about 4 years now. Over the last couple years I don't drive the car as much as I would like. It gets out maybe a weekend out of the month. What I have noticed over last few months is the car doesn't seem to have the same power as it had? I haven't put that many miles on the car over last couple years? Any ideas what would cause this?

Look at the wires? Are they stock? The stock wires I have seen gone bad and will not allow the connection the motor needs causing it to loss power. How old are your plugs?

I have swapped out the wires and plugs and no difference?

Have you replaced the fuel filter, As it stops up you well slowly loose power.
