no when it is cold it runs great, until it warms up then starts acting like its trying to missfire. At throttle you can throttle it up and it will smooth out mostly.I went over it today on the externals no air leaks or exhaust leaks. I am afraid Its a valve that is srteched or warped.

will check Moe thanks man. I didnt think that would only cause it to run bad after warmed up, but others ave suggested the same so thats next check coils.
If that dont work valve clearances are next.
