loss of pick up.
hi all, ok ive changed me leads cap arm plugs etc, oil change fresh oil and for some reason the car doesnt have as much pull when you open the throttle.
and it is pinking through the exhaust , car seems to be better when warm but not the norm from start up.

Cheap Leads???
Just a thought, what make were the ignition leads?? It's hard to find a good quaility set out there, Also are the plugs the correct ones?
Why did you change the items you did was it just because it was due? or did you have any other problems? is the air filter in properly and not restricting flow

Runs on??
Hi, did it have this problem before you changed the leads and plugs? i always trace my last steps back, if ive changed somfthing and then i've a problem after i retrace my steps.
I once had a Volvo 340 1.4 carb. i serviced it and changed the leads because they looked like they needed doing. After i done this the car always ran on after the ignition was turned off. dont know why. the leads wernt great but then i sold the car not long after so i never got to the bottom of it. I replaced the leads on my Mercedes 260e and it never link to start from cold took a few more turns than usual, i put the old set back on and it run spot on! I'm not syaing it is the leads but if it didnt have this problem before all you have done is replace the plugs like for like and repaired a vac line, so it would suggest it's the leads.
