You can tell that your optispark distributor is going bad if you experience symptoms such as rough idling, stalling, or difficulty starting the engine. Additionally, if you notice a decrease in engine performance or misfires, especially under load, it may indicate a failing optispark. Visual signs like corrosion, moisture inside the distributor, or burnt connectors can also suggest impending failure. Finally, using a diagnostic tool to check for error codes related to ignition can help confirm the issue.

The problem could be your optispark distributor. They have a tendency to corrode inside and when this happens, it hinders the performance to the point that acceleration is greatly hampered. A bad optispark will also cause starting issues and engine misfires. Besides the optispark, check for a vacuum leak. Intake manifold leaks are very common on the LT1, as well as valve cover gasket leaks.
