84 4KQ Cutting out

[Roa, Greg]

Sweet!  Glad to hear that you got it all figured out Chris.  Hopefully
it saved you some of the pain that I went through with my 4kq.  Took me
a long time to finally figure out what the root of the problems were on
mine, so hopefully it'll help quicken diagnosis for others.
