Hi all,

I started my 59 Ford Custom 300 yesterday evening for the first time this year. It started a little hard, but no biggie. When I went to pull forward out of the garage it acted as if it was running out of gas. I have replaced the fuel filter, fuel pump, and carb, to no avail.

Distributor is stock using points. Gas is fresh.

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Check your points to see if they clean on the contacts (they can get a corrosion from sitting clean them with a point file) and check they are gaped right, also check the condenser is grounding good to point plate IE screw is tight or remove and clean reinstall.
