Check the firing order to make sure they are correct. I bought a 38 ford and drove it home and on the way home the car kept lousing power. I pulled over and the car did not want to turn over. I got a ride home to get my trailer and when I got back the car started right up. so my wife drove the car home and when we got home car did not want to turn over. [Problem was two spark plug wires were cross. I use a screwdriver to find the problem grounding out each cylinder out and two would not die down cross them and that worked. This was my problem then. Would check out?
