I had rebuilt the Carb, The dizzy and reset the valves. Re-torqued the intake and exhaust, Pulled the gas tank and cleaned it out and thought all was good. Idle was good and timing was good. Nice and smooth. Ran like crazy up hill and fell on its face every shift and every start from a stop. After all of this the Vacuum advance started to leak and that was what my problem was. Yes I tested that vac advance before I put the dizzy back in. Just pulled it cause I ran out of things to poke. I am gonna let the screws in the carb rest for a while now and enjoy driving this truck. 52 half ton with a 1960 235, 12 volts. Some times it is the thing I know is good that gets me.
