Couple questions about my 'new' 66. The car runs rich but strong at speed. At idle it is very rough and lumpy. Picked up new distributor, points, condencer, wires, etc. Timing was off a bit. Replaced dist points condencer, set to spec. Idles better in neutral but still rough when in gear. Vacuum is marginal and will not increase with idle mixture adjustment. Have a kit for the AFB but haven't done it yet. Motor is just rebuilt by a known good local racer and sounds very strong. No knocks, rattles, or blue smoke. Will check compression tomorrow when I have the plugs out. The plugs are champion and black with soot but do not appear to be fouled. Wires are relatively new (5 years and 500 miles) Going into town to get new plugs. My plan is to try the plugs first, then wires, then pull the valve covers and see if the rockers are too tight. Failing all that, I'll go through the carb. Have I missed anything? Btw, the new dist was 34 bucks and came with points and condencer. With the car at 128K, it was probably time anyway.
