CHRISTI: (regarding distributor cap and points)

You really need to replace the cap, points AND condenser then reset the timing. Knowing one element (ignition) of the system is suspect only lessens the chances (hence odds) of correcting what may (or may not be) a problem in another element. You do have some problems with the carbs yes, but why wonder if the crack in the cap and the bad points are adding to the problems or not. The ignition components are an easy fix and, done correctly, will take that elememt out of the problem mix.

Please don't ask how I really know that for a fact - but it is so.

Hang tough.
