Thanks Don Coatney, I'll check for that when I get home from work.

I don't have a small spring on mine. Should it have come with the points? What's the best brand or place to buy them? I bought mine at NAPA

Don Coatney, I just put the carb back on Monday.

Thanks guys, I'll check the spring on the contact arm today. I haven't done a compression test yet. I was thinking it may be fuel pump but wasn't sure how to test it.

Hey guys, I've been dealing with an issue for quite some time that just has me stumped. I have a 218 3spd in my 53 Cambridge. I haven't been able to give it more than 1/2 throttle or it stumbles and breaks down. It will idle perfectly. I have replaced the following: points, cap, plugs & wires, coil, fuel filter, and just sent the carb out to be completely disassembled, cleaned and rebuilt. Not sure what I'm missing any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys, new to this forum. A lot of nice cars on here! I have a 1953 Cambridge. I just picked up a 360 & trans with 60k miles on it going to swap out my tired flat head any advice? I also have a cherokee rear going in.
