    Stalling when neutral and driving

    Finally got around to working on it. The initial problem was the points and condenser. Should have been my first guess. Since replacing them, I've been trying to redial the carburetors fuel and air mixture. It still stalls occasionally, but not nearly as often as before. Now I'm getting...

    Stalling when neutral and driving

    Hi All, With the recent change in seasons, I've noticed the barracuda has taken up a habit of stalling after warming up when in park/neutral and occasionally when driving (50-60mph). I did a bit of searching from older posts and most responses seemed to be timing. However, I just recently...

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    Neither have I, but I guess someone has to do it once.

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    I picked one up a couple days ago just to have around in case, but like I said, she's running good and strong now. I just wanted to give everyone who had helped me out an update.

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    For anyone else who has followed this, I just wanted to post and update after a long silence. After playing around with the car for some months, I finally had it towed down to a local mechanic in South Orange, NJ. He determined that the reason why the car failed to start, was that the previous...

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    Maybe it wasn't all of them or that plugs at all, but after I put the old plugs in, the car started right up. I was going to try iridium plugs, but if there is a more reliable solution let me know. I may just keep these in as they seem to be running better than the brand new ones I originally...

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    So, finally got around to looking into it. Work has been crazy lately; one of our shows got picked up for a second season on Discovery ID. Turns out in all of this, it was the spark plugs. They had all failed, luckily once I was already home. I had decided to try the pulstar plugs and they ran...

    73AbodEE, I'm still new to all of this so can you elaborate when you say "jumped it at the relay"? Hang10Mike, did you have to replace the whole key setup, or rewire the ignition from the key to the firewall?

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I really appreciate it! Pulled all the spark plugs and cleaned them, none of them seemed to be fouled, but I'll pick up new plugs tomorrow to try out. Pulled distributor cap, everything looked dry, rotor is turning. The electronic ignition is the Pertronix...

    Ran fine last night, wouldn't start this morning

    Tried starting the car this morning after driving all day yesterday and had no luck. The lights and radio come on, car cranks, gas flows into the carburetor, but car doesn't fire. It was raining last night, but the car had no problem starting then. It could be a spark issue, but because it...
