I'm pretty sure that the car doesn't have a vacuum leak. Checked every hose and tightened all connections. car has a pronounced miss at idle and will sometimes stall when put into gear. Car runs like a bat outa hell otherwise, acceleration is strong no miss under load.

My brother ended up with similar symptoms on his Porsche 914. Turned out to be a stuck valve. Is this the possible culprit with mine? What would be some other symptoms of a stuck valve?
