81 gtv6 dist problems

after almost 1500 miles of so so reliability. The alfa gremlins are back in force!!!
13 miles to the gallon (speedo way off). Super hard warm starts. No accelaration till 3 grand. The vacuum mech on this puppy has 2 lines and does not do what it is supposed to do when you pull off the upper hose. (advance to p/f. it retards ~20 deg.) The diaphragm holds a vacuum on both lines. There is no play in the dist bushings. Less than 60000 miles on this beast. I guess sitting in the woods for ten years with a tree growing through it made it cantankerous.
I could use some good advise on this one. thanks
