Have you changed anything in the Ing. system lately? I once had a car
give me a fit and couldn't find anything wrong, since it was all new
parts. Put it on an early engine scope (this was in the 1960's) and
found the problem. The cap and rotor were after-market and by different
Manufacturers. The gap between the cap and the rotor contacts was too
large.
It ran fine until you stepped on it, then broke down, shaking, until
you let off the gas.

Sounds like an ignition issue. Acceleration is when a faulty plug
wire, carbonized distributor cap or rotor or a bad spark plug can rear

probably be fuel related, but stuttering or the plug wire off syndrome
is probably ignition. I would start there.

Has anyone ever had a problem that is close to this one..
When you start out with a mid to strong acceleration, expecialy when
the trans has shifted to 2nd or 3rd, the car vibrates and feels like
one or two cylinders have the engine is NOT the plug wires off… I
pulled and changed the torque converter, but didn’t help. U joints
seem to be OK.. it’s a 56 dodge, with 413 toqueflite..
The engine is not missing and runs nice. Im thinking its someplace
behind the transmission. Any ideas out there?
