need more help with my 69
alright, well i finaly got this car up and running last week. turned out it was a couple of fried wires so the new starter wouldnt kick in.
friday, the car idles great. didnt take it out on the road since theres no insurance.
sunday, starts up just fine when i show it to a friend of mine.
today, i go to start it up to move it around and its fireing on 2 cyinlinders. every now and hten another couple will kick in.
nothing has happend to this car in the last 48hrs. it ran good, i turned it off, and its sat up until now.
im just looking for suggestions at to what the hell could have happend.
its a 350 with 4spd manual.

Could it be possible that the distributor hold down bracket is not tight allowing the distributor to rotate and change timing? Just a thought.

we pulled the plugs out today. they dont look great, but they definatly dont look bad.
we decided to just go ahead and replace it all. tomarrow were picking up new plugs and wires for the thing.
fix one thing on this car, 2 more things break
