the gf has a 1991 UA Corsair with a CA20. it has developed a miss when you first take off from an intersection, lights etc. it does it hot or cold. doesn't matter

now it has had a new fuel pump within the last 3 months as the old one packed up
i adjusted the valve clearances yesterday (sounded like a tractor)
and new plugs

she's owned it 6 months and just before she bought it, it had a new TPS and coolant temp sender (temp gauge still doesn't work, i've also changed the dash cluster, still no temp gauge)

next thing i was thinking to put on it is a fuel filter.

what do you guys reckon?
