recently picked up a mint 1986 in all original condition. first owner, absolutely babied. the condition is a true 9/10 all around.
It has been super well-maintainted but I feel like it is lacking power in terms of acceleration and top end vs. my 98 town version. but maybe FLs are slower?
I have replaced the spark plugs and wires. Points are clean. Car starts when cold, idles and drives great.
Seems to hit a max of about 85km/h on flat ground which seems a bit slow… what am I missing here? what else can i check? do these engines ever get carbon build up from lugging the engine? The first owner was a nice chap but shifted super early.
