When the engine is cold for about 90 seconds runs smooth
AS the temperature is below 80 degrees C  IT SKIPS
When the temperature is 85 to 100 Degrees C it Runs smooth
Any Suggestions? I have about pulled what is left of my hair out.
TIA Joe

I'd probably check the engine mounts... they are probably torn.

Then spark plug wire... check the resistance... should all be less than 1300
ohm and all should be similar to each other.

New plugs, Plug wires, Points, Rotor button and rotor cap

O2 sensor? Did you disconnect the battery for like 30 minutes with key in on
position to erase the memory?

Please describe the skipping.

When did you last change the fuel filters?

Is it one cylinder that does this or random cylinders?

Do you have access to an oscilloscope?
