The 1275 runs great off idle and pulls real well until I get to 60mph. I
used to be able to run to 80+ mph but now it misses (stumbling misfire) from
60 on up and 65-70 is all it's got. In 4th uphill under load it feels like
I'm dragging an anchor.
I gapped the points once again, somehow they are closing a bit. I am Sure I
had them tight this time. I reset total advance to about 30 BTDC still not
running right.
I had a suggestion before from a lister that the elec fuel pump might be
bad. However when I mash the throttle in 1st and 2nd it pulls great up to
5100 rpm or so where I chicken out and shift. Idle is good so I think no
intake leaks.
Several weeks ago I had it running very well. Then my idle went to hell.
After that I adjusted the valves to .012 and put in second set of new
points, condenser, rotor and cap. Plugs are light tan and dry.
Any more suggestions, I'm stumped.
