Hallalua!! I found the missfire at full throttle problem!

asked my son what he thought might be causing the backfire and loss of power under load. He crawled under the car to check the fuel lines for any kinks or obstructions. He was under the car about 3 minutes and said he found a leaking fuel line connection. so I handed him a couple wrenches and he tighted the loose connection about 1/4 turn or so. We took it out for a test drive north of town and it was running great like a cleveland should. Now I hav to try to keep my foot out of it , at least aroung town! thanks for all the help , I am really glad to have it running right.
