so i finally got my '66 coupe started and running halfway decent (289 2brl w/ C4). but i've got a weird problem with the distributor... cylinders 1 and 5 don't fire unless there is some pressure (like pushing on it pressure) on the vacuum advance... they all fire just fine when the vacuum advance is pushed all the way over up against the upper radiator hose... which is "fine" (i'm going to be selling the car), however it's got a lot of advance when it's like that...
i imagine the only fix is to replace the distributor with a rebuilt one? i've popped the cap and everything seems to be tight inside. any ideas?
distributor is original w/ single set of points. other than this issue, the car runs really pretty darn good all things considered!
i'm not used to this low-tech stuff!!
