Jonathan=> I was going to pull the diz because there is some oil coming => up from the base (slight)...which suggests its time for a new O-ring. Well, that stumps me -- I can't imagine what might be keeping that diz stuck in place. Tried a crowbar yet? ;) => I also thought that the problems I'm having with misfiring in 3rd and => 4th could be related to the diz. I've replaced everything else :) Are you replacing points and condensor to address this problem, or as routine maintenance? Are you sure your coil is good? When was the last rebuild on the carb? Do you have all your air-control stuff properly in place and functioning? If your misfiring is related to speed rather than RPM, I'd say the advance mechanism is off the hook. You can test that standing still. I'd start looking for some way that speed might be affecting the electrical or fuel system. Maybe an old rubber line on the suction side of the fuel pump that's collapsing under continuous load? Intake airflow problem? Stereo drawing too many amps when you crank it up?
