I need answers before i can help you further.

I used to sell and teach classes for a major engine diagnostic equipment company. We can fix this.

Thanks! Yes, it sat for almost 5 years. The pic you see is of the vehicle at a game this year, so it's running. I can get from point A to B, but it feels like it
"sticks" a bit when I rev it up. It's not smooth at that point even though it idles quite nicely. I have a dwell tachometer and have checked that and it appears to be fine. Also, periodically, when I am going uphill, I don't have any real power. I realized doing this via the interwebz is hit and miss, but I have it in Independence and would really like someone who knows about these vehicles to take a look. I really think it's timing/vacuum issues.
