Re: popping issue solved
A bad vacuum advance could cause a lean mixture. That will cause a poping condition. Glad you nailed it.

Re: popping issue solved
oldscool the problem is when you replace 2 parts of which either could be the problem you really don't know which one corrected it. Always change one part and run it before changing another part then you know what caused it. G.M.
