Last week the car would not start on Monday or Tuesday morning. Pulled the plug wires and found there was no spark at the plug, but there was spark at the distributor. Replaced the plug wires and tried again. Still wouldn't go. Realized I didn't clear out the flood that probably occurred. Pulled all the plugs out and dumped all the gas out of them. Turned the motor over a few times and cleared the rest. Reinstalled plugs and wires and it started and was a little rough, but not too bad.

So basically, after replacing the plug wires and clearing out the flood, the car has never ran better. The tach doesn't act up anymore, and the car doesn't buck. I never realized plug wires could cause so much crazy stuff.
