I'm back. Been a while so the old bird decided it was time to act up. Been trouble shooting but have not come to any conclusions.
Get the car started and head out for a drive runs fine
Exit off the highway and it begins to sputter a bit
Come to a stop and smells of gas and is idling rough
Press on gas and seems to smooth out
Back onto highway and still has some hesitation as I can see the tach bounce a bit
Get it home and shut it off for a while
Start back up, will run fine
Been doing this same pattern for 2-3 weeks now

Weber carb has been rebuilt (yea we talked about this..it is a Weber)
Fuel tank was boiled and lines flushed in May
Points/distributor rebuilt
New plugs

Thought it might be bad fuel but if that was the case, how come it only does it after you have been driving a while and let off the gas?
Any thoughts?
Also, this is different from the last post I had about it missing which was a was the distributor wire touching the side of the distributor.
Appreciate your help
