I bought a 1983 Fleetwood with the 4.1 in it for $200 this thing is super nice white with blue leather and only has 87,000 orig miles but I got it so cheap because it wouldnt run. i put a new ecm in it but it still is rough could it be the map sensor or the temp sensor? it smoothes out when your driving but under light acceleration or at idle it is very rough... new plugs already installed i am going to go buy a temp sensor a map sensor and a fuel filter but I didnt want to do it unless I had some advice....Thanks Josh

Finish the tune-up on the Fleetwood by also replacing the air filter, pcv, crank ventilation filter, fuel filter, clean out the fuel injectors. Also check and see if you have any codes and post them here.
Check codes by pressing "OFF" and "WARMER" at the same time for about 4 or 5 seconds, while the key is in the "ON" position or while the car is idling. The climate control will dispaly a -188 followed by any codes (ie 26, 39, 53, etc) then a 7.0 (this means end of codes).

Dont worry about 52, thats just a battery disconnect code. Im not sure about 30, but 39 is a Trans. code thats for the TCC engaement solinoid
