Yeah, the car has points. I'll check the distributer, and fuel pump, but pardon my naivety, what is a diaphragm?? Thanks for the advise.
On rainy or misty days, most noticable during first ten miles, at low RPMs the car tends to stall out. Slowing down or stopping for a red light...

I have used them before... SMS is the best. Expensive or not, if you want the best spend the extra $$. You will not be sorry. So far I have used...
I might have to change them eventually since the drivers side is getting chewed up from being pinched in the seat mechanism, which I am sure is...
The front seatbelts in my two-door '73 Maverick are probably of the most inconvenient I have EVER seen on ANY car, old or new. I am having a hard...
