I recently bought a 1968 mustang but have had little time to work on it (in the military). This past weekend I was home for a bit and started doing some work on it. I had been having some trouble with it sputtering out when it got up to the 40-50mph speeds. I initially figured it was "junk" in the gas, but when I opened it up this weekend, I found that the cord connecting the coil to the distributor was loose. Could this be responsible for it "dying out" at the higher speeds and RPMs? I was planning on replacing the fuel tank, but I'm not sure if I'll need to now.
Also, I need to replace the tires. Does anybody have any suggestions on what tires I should go with. Thanks
