Was starting to run and idle a little about a month ago. And was also starting to stall out as soon as it was started. Had to feather it, put into drive and quickly go so it would stay on. Now it runs very rough if at all when it starts up, and is also running on only 3cylinders, but never the same 3 when it starts. Replaced plugs and wires. OBD 1 CODES are 25 and 26. Air/fuel ratio lean and air/fuel ratio rich.

Hello,

It sounds like you have low compression in one or more cylinders please follow this guide to confirm. You can rent a gauge for free from the auto parts store.

Please run this test and get back to us we are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken
