Default Get a drive in as soon as possible to find any new problems you may have...

Took mine out for our monthly retiree breakfast two weeks ago and was very glad I did - it had a miss even after it was completely warmed up (20 mile to the restaurant and it was 30F when I started at the drive -- very refreshing, it was 50F three hours later, much more enjoyable.)

Got home and pulled the distributer cap for the first time in the 15 months I've had this cobra and was horrified to the the rust in my pre 2009 MSD dizzy and one of the advance springs was broke, lucky it hadn't fallen down inside the distributor, just one of the small ears. Now I have time to replace the 15 YO unit before serious driving weather arrives. Now to figure out what is the "best" solution today as I can't believe the number of material quality issues MSD has across all car of this vintage including Mopars, Chevies and Fords...
