Replaced a new distributor cap and rotor button, new wires, fuel valve, clean throttle body.
ran Seafoam in has tank. Since replacing all that it run like it has burnt valves. It idles so, so, when you put it in gear. It loses power and jerks. Just does not want to go. I am at a loss. I do not know what else to do. Any thing come to mind? Maybe vacuum leak? Fuel pump is two years old. New fuel filter.

Check the plug wire routing and be sure you do not have any mixed up. Also, you can try a reset, disconnect both battery cables. Now hold the ends of the cables together for about thirty seconds. Reconnect them and see if things have improved.

Please reply back with any changes.
