Car is back and running better than ever!

 As I suspected, Mark was able to get things sorted. The first thing was that he found debris in the carb bowls. I'm not sure what's happening here since the fuel filter has been replaced three times. Maybe the tanks need to be cleaned out. I pulled then in 2009 and David pulled them again in 2016. Both times they looked clean but somehow junk is getting to the carbs. I'll have to keep on eye on this. I know that it's not good for these cars to sit and unfortunately.the car has been sitting more than driving. The other thing was that apparently one of my Pertronix coils was defective. That's strike three for Pertronix. I will never use or recommend their products again. At this point, I am really considering switching to Bosch coils and points.
