+It would be a Huge help for us OLD Ford guys to know what engine your working on and what carb is on it . Is it and F E block or is it a Y block or is it a small block and this i doubt . As most one ton's of that time frame were the F E 352 two BBl and if so then it will be running a Auto Lite 2 BBl carb . They are sorta like a Holley and a lot of running problems are caused by a bad power valve inside . Now as for plugs used in them should be a BF 42 OLD number in Auto lite. Ing timing should be around 5 degrees BTDC . NOW if someone changed that engine out to say a 67-68 360 there were some of them that did not run right due to being missed timed due to the Harmonic balancer being assembled wrong and had the timing set way retarded . and some the outer part slipped and when setting the timing by the light you set them incorrectly and they ran like cow poop . So pull #1 and pull the valve cover and check for correct timing . And other thing here is with and old sloppy timing chain they have been knowen to skip a tooth as they used a Nylon gear on the cam . IF old momery serves you vac is a little high as they normally ran around 16-18
