if it has been sitting uncranked, you may want to take the plugs out and oil all the cylinders then spin it a couple of times and put them back on. also empty out the carb of any old fuel\sludge. Good Luck!
does it have the original points distributor? if so you might check the dwell and gap of the contacts. they are cheap to replace so it might be better to just go ahead and give it a tune up.
new to the site hey all, how is it going? I am new to this site. mav and comet lovers are a dying breed so its nice to know that i am not alone. i own a couple mavs and some other odd ball ford cars. i own my own business WM Performance Automotive. i am an authourized dealer of lots of companies and parts. i have alot of parts i am getting rid of for cheap to get them out of my way. i look forward to getting to know you all and sharing pics and info.
