Breaking up, ignition or carb???
My 59 engine in my 36 is breaking up at mid range RPM at first I thought it was ignition.I have since found that if I pull my choke on slightly it smoothes out.The carb is a rebuilt one by one of the barns premiere rebuilders,Any comments or sugestions are appreciated. Thanks Phil
