Well myself i would start off with making sure that you have the correct plugs , next chek the gap on all the plugs to make sure that they are a .025 then move on to a set of points and cond. set at .020 then a new cap and rotor and then a new set of Copper core plug wires , next make sure that the dist is working correctly and that the centrifcal advance is working if that is not working then the dist needs to be worked on and that should be left to someone that knows what he is doing and has the equipment to test it . Next would be the timing and here again the dist must be working properly to make sure that it is advancing . Then we would be looking at the intake manifold for leaks and also checking the carb for propper adjustment . THEN It would be on to the valve adjustment. Oh and having a book to go by is a BIG PLUS.
