Re: [T3] back fire



Brandon=> only when i try to drive it , and then only when it's under a 
       => real load.

Have you got a dwell meter? Don't just replace points&con randomly, see 
if they're working on spec. The points are adjustable, of course: do you 
know how to do this? Do you know what your dwell angle and/or point gap 
should be? 

I'd advise you not to worry about carb jetting etc. until you're sure 
of your dwell and timing -- probably not even then.  Relax, this sounds 
like an easy problem.
