Hi All!
I have been reading this forum for a couple of weeks - It's Great!!
We just bought a 65 Mustang with a 200 and 3 speed - it's in pretty good shape - nice paint and interior.
When we bought it the engine would idle fine and run fine as long as you were not pressing on the throttle - it would stumble as you tried to accelerate. I thought it was the accel pump in the carb as there was no squirt out of it into the carb. I rebuilt the carb and it ran better but the stumble was still there??
I then looked at the advance can on the dist, it was shot so I replaced it - now the car will not start at all!! I have fuel in the carb and spark at all 6 plugs, I thought that it might be the timing so I tried moving the dist around some but it did not help - it turns over just fine but does not want to fire.
Anybody have any ideas??
Thanks
Marty
