It starts fine and revs fine while in neutral. Once I drive it it seems to bog down. It feels like it's flooding, I have to be very light on the gas to get it to drive. After about 5 minutes or so it will stall and not restart. I read a post that this might be attributed to a bad distributor condenser so I ordered one. I can't seem to find where it's supposed to go. Any input?
Thanks in advance.

Should be mounted with a screw and the wire going to the point set. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 9,115 | I would be think more about a bad coil if I were looking for an electrical cause like that. | | |
