Message	It's hard enough to examine a plug well when it's right in front of you, much less when looking at a picture on a computer. But I think you understand what I'm saying. The plug probably caused the stuttering, but the root question is what caused the plug failure. Bad plug? I dunno. Also, looking at yer timeslip, I'd wonder if you have too much stall. Any higher stall will hurt mph, and if the converter isn't giving you good 60fts, then one must question how is it helping at all? I know this from my own experience with a too-high stall, btw......
