Alright guys, my 89 has about 97,000 miles on her and has never had a 60k. I'm doing the wires and plugs this weekend (its been awhile) so I hope that may correct the problem. My sho seems to slightly hesitate when starting from a stop. It almost feels like no power for a very short moment then takes off. Can this be a spark plug problem or are there any sensors I should replace?
Thanks!

Mine too, if you rev it in neutral it's like sorta of clogged around 1500rpm until it gets up higher in the revs, then it's smooth.

But while driving, it surges a bit if I give it lots of throttle around 2-3krpm... even once the secondaries open sometimes. It's no fun.

New plugs and wires could cure the problem or it could be a tps issue. Luckily those are cheap and easy to install.

Thanks for the input, I'll replace the wires/plugs/TPS sensor and hopefully she won't hesitate or stutter.
