My 95 TA is doing pretty much the same thing at the moment, ran great for about a week after doing new valve springs, cam, RR, lifters, cap and rotor and gaskets. After that it developed a stumbling idle and lost a bunch of power...i'm waiting on a new opti that i'm hoping will fix the problem...out of curiosity, what brand of opti's are you putting on?

either way, good luck, and free bump for ya

Need more details...I'm guessing a cheap knock off optispark is to blame.

have you checked the opti vent lines to make sure they are clear and not plugged up with moister?
