thanks for the info. yes I pulled the plugs and cleaned them. actually they were pretty good. I pulled thedistributor tonight. the vacuum advance was stuck and the plate that slides and advances the timing was pretty sticky. I took it down to the last screw cleaned and reassembeled. The dual vacuum lines... the vacuum advance diaphram seems to work fine. the inner vacuum retaqrd sucks air. so maybe that is the problem. the plate on the dist si sliding with the advance well I put it together and it ran good for about one min then it started to cough and gag. I moved the distributor and not much help. If you can get the engine running and hi rpm it seems fine only when you lower rpm does it coughg and choke out. tomorrow a new vacuum advance if I can find one. thanks for teh imfo if you happen to have any more ideas plz let me know. than\x
