That day when we ran the car on the Beltline and we detected some
"stuttering"; you installed the two Belleville Washers: and I drove
back to Stoughton the '69 ran like it was a totally new car.

I was amazed at how "miss-free" and "strong the engine ran.
Who would have thought that those two little, small Belleville Washers
would make that big a difference.

Has anyone ever figured out WHY an OE engine injector ground makes a
perfect connection?
And WHY after a (engine re-build) disconnect and reattachment of the
injector ground connections, don't function as well?
