My '71 Sqbk is there, but it's missing. How can that be? Hey, I'm still trying to figure out why it is we park on a driveway and drive on a parkway! The '71, with dual Weber ICT-34s and Pertronix ignition, idles well, runs smoothly, has lotsa power...until I have driven about 10 miles (the distance I must go to get from home to town each day). When I have come up on the 8 or 9 mile mark (running between 55 and 65), the engine starts missing quite badly. After I let the vehicle sit and cool at the restaurant (my morning ritual is an hour's worth of coffee drinking and newpaper reading), it does fine...until I do the return trip home, then, shazam, same problem under the same circumstances. The fuel pump puts out a good steady volume of juice. I replaced the fuel filter, and---zilch, no improvement. Other than perhaps re-checking all my tune-up specs, what should I be looking for? So, my car is here but it is missing. That's okay, 'cause I'm here but apparently not ALL here. (My wife says that whenever I walk into a room, it's almost like somebody has left!)
