Shuddering engine...UPDATE July,1

We did leave off there. After the first balance test, I ran out of time, then got distracted by the fuel tank. I replaced the screens in the injectors, and no change, BUT, I fouled up and didn't keep the injectors on the driver side in order, SO, another balance test is in order. I'll hopefully be able to tell if the issue is in the same place, or moved to either 5, 6, 0r the 7 position.

Waiting on gaskets, haven't had time to do the compression test and balance test, ordered a new harmonic balancer (mine looked like it has a slight wobble to it, although that wouldn't cause the rough acceleration). It's going to be  replaced as soon as it gets here....if I have some time.
