Hi guys. I've got a 66 mustang. 289, 600cfm Carter carb. The problem I'm having is that the car starts up ok and runs great for about 5 - 10 minutes. After it warms up, it will still idle fine at a stop, but when you give it gas, it acts like it wants to die for a second until you get above and beyond that rpm range. This will get progressivly worse if you keep driving it to the point to where when you accelerate it dies.
If you let the car sit for an hour or two, it will start back up and drive fine again for 5 - 10 minutes and the process repeats.
I've got the points set properly, the timing is advanced by about 3 degrees, but the distributor WILL NOT move to let me adjust it back. I'm not super mechanically inclined, but I can replace basic parts and try a few things if someone has some ideas. Trying to avoid having to take it to a shop as most of the mechanics seem to be interested in only working on new cars they can plug a computer into. :(
Thanks in advance!
