hello ever body this is my first post. i have a 81 gl wagon that cuts out about 3000 to 3500 rpm then it will stop and run fine . anybody had this problem???????

Mine likes to do that when its really cold (when the choke is still on) might be a different engine/clutch between an 81 and 86 GL though.

Well, I'd recommend looking at all the basics first. Plugs, wires, carb, etc. I suspect, though, that the problem is in the distributor. Sloppy bushings are fairly common on these. Make sure that the rotor doesn't have any play in it. Might also check the gap between the reluctor and pickups.
