I really thought I had made an advancement.I had it running around longer than any time since getting it back together and then it crapped out . Rest assured it is grounded seven ways to sunday.But the directions said that it isn't affected by the presence of a ballast resister.If that not using a ballast resister does it, then you can't beleive everything you read.Who would have thought that just changing an ignition box would have all these wrinkles ?I was just trying to follow the directions.I used their parts .Now my system is just what they showed in their diagram , and still it is fouling plugs .Actually the same plug as before just cleaned , same distributor,same coil ,same carbs but now I have no doubts about . If I was putting some dieying guy's car tgether and all this stuff happened ,no one would beleive me , like I wasn't making all this up. Next attempt tomorrow will be new plugs and no ballast resister. Well at least the carbs are really good looking now, they don't fume and druel. You can't point to a part on this car that I don't have a story about all the struugles I had to go through. and I bought a running and liescenced car. If I told anyone thinking about one of these cars all the crap you'd start seeing a lot more middle aged guys buying new mustang instead . It does reach a saturation point. So my carb thread turns into a ignition thread. Sorry to derail my own thread. I at least hope others have been reading this thread and 1 think I'm a dolt, and 2 no dual fours for me. Dual fours would never be my choice again. but that is the boat I'm in now.Do you Think the Monster Garage ,or Tunner Overhaul ,etc could get it together in one season let allone one episode ?
