Many years ago my '65 Imperial began running poorly once when I had a "pin
hole" leak in a heater hose. It would only spray when the car was accelerating,
but it would spray coolant all over the distributor. Somehow the inside of the
distributor would become wet, and the car would run progressively worse until
it would finally quit. At the time, it was difficult to figure out, but now I
would know what to look for.
I doubt is this is your problem, but it did happen, and it gives you something
else to check.
