The car will not idle lower than 950 rpm. It seems to have ample power at wot, though. Like I said, the distributor has been in the car a very long time and the curve is the curve that it came with. I have never bothered to recurve and quiet it down a bit, but now I think it may be part of the problem. I will also check out some of the other possibilities that were previously stated. Thanks, for all the input. There definitely seems to be more to look at than I thought of. I've gotta get this thing running right. Summer is flying by!
