1974 valiant stalls in gear 225 automatic

Many possibilities, some simple
1...Any chance something came loose
2....How was the idle speed before, IE was it on the low side, high side, ??
3....Reach down and wiggle the distributor see if it's come loose, maybe the timing changed. It's possible something came loose/ worn in the distributor
4....How is it's history, using oil, etc, any possibility a plug is fowling
5....I would get some pressurized carb cleaner, remove the idle screw and with the "snorkel" (make SURE one is on the can when you buy it, they have a habit of "walking") spray into the idle screw. If you can devise a makeshift seal around the snorkel, even say, would up tissue paper, will help pressure the cleaner through the idle passages.

LOL.........how long since it's been tuned up.......cap/ rotor/ wires/ plugs/ carb cleaned, air filter ?? Hey jus' askin'

1. still checking but nothing obvious yet
2. idle speed normal around 800
3 distributor not moving , but i pulled the cap and checked the surfaces looked fine and rotor looked ok , but i pulled the coil wire and i looked slightly carboned , i went to scuff it up a little with sandpaper , but part of the metal tip came right off , something funky going on in the caps coil tower i think . thanks for putting me in that direction . i will definitely get a new cap and rotor .
4. possible , it used up about half a quart on the 3 day trip , but alot of miles . i'll check the plugs later.
5. thanks will do that if the other stuff does'nt take care of it .

would anything cause the caps coil tower to burn up besides age or corrosion ?

it is probably time for a tune up , thanks for asking . got three mopars and i slack on some things , sometimes .
