Good afternoon all...What I meant by missing on the second half was when the throttle is more than half depressed when moving fairly fast in second gear and then on the road at 45 mph or more.

I took the old girl to a far more skilled friend today and he put the distributor on a sun distributor machine and made some adjustments. Points were too close, the cam dwell angle was slightly off, the distributor cap and rotor were fine, a spring had come loose on a metering rod in the carburator, one spark plug had a piece of the insulator broken off, and the plug wires were for a more modern machine, they are not steel or coper wire. I received a new set for Christmas, so they will be going in tomorrow. The old girl is running much better, once the plug is replaced and the wires are changed, we'll see what we have left to do. I'll get a hold of Fred's guys on Monday and order a correct condenser...but at least NAPA had one that would get the old girl running....Thanks, Ernie
