#338504 Those compression numbers are pretty low... sounds like you bought a tired motor. Know how many miles it has?
I'd start with a basic tune-up: Plugs, Wires, Cap & Rotor and see if that fixes it.

#338550 i ran injector cleaner through the intake with a slow drip and it stopped so must have had some carbon somewhere cause that cleaned it out pretty good thanks for the input
