86 4k rough run update



Ok,
    We checked the wiring to the Ignition control, to the oxs control, swapped the coil, checked the plug wires, changed the cap,  checked timing, changed fuel distributor, all of the above did nothing. ( it sure is nice to have tons of parts lying around) Changed the rotor,...um....well..................it.........well.......... it runs tons better.
The strange thing is that we put the "bad rotor" in Pat's beater and it runs fine. Strange.
It still has a small, really small,  miss but I think a tune up kit will solve that.

Thanks to all that sent suggestions, and to Orin for sending it to the main list. It sure is nice to know that a resource like the list is available to us fools that insist on driving older Audi's.  ;-)
