I'd vote fuel filter or fuel pump is starting to go bad. Couldn't hurt to do all new spark plugs anyways though.

May have the one off my car in a couple weeks when I get around to de-powering my rack. If you still need one then I'll get with you on shipping and such.

Just thought I'd add an update to say the car is back together and running great! I properly torqued the bolts, but will re-check them in a week or so just in case. Thanks for everyones help!

Anyone with access to a service manual know the torque specs for the 3 bolts going into the block? I've tried all the links to manuals on here but all the links are dead.
