Re: Miss on newly rebuilt 292
The last time this engine ran before the rebuild was in 1970. It was sitting for 50 years so all the old parts are really old!
Only had a few minutes to work on it today but I put the old coil on and added the resistor back in. It starts and runs about the same - still has the miss. I then pulled wires from the distributor one at a time while it was running and each caused the engine to run rougher.
I do have the old plugs but... at least 50 years old... They may work, the old coil does.
Tomorrow I will get a new set of plugs and points and try again. If that doesn't work I have another new set of wires and I'll replace one at a time and see if that makes a difference.
