The Ford Barn - View Single Post - 55 T-Bird stalls

Trying to finalize all the threads I started:

Actually, unlike I said above NO SUCCESS.

After doing all the above, including a new distributor, two new coils, checking ballast resistor and finally installing the pertronix, it still had the problem.

The whole problem was, I hope, resolved when we ran a new hot wire to the coil. Somewhere up the line was a bad connection or broken wire.

Anyway, we have so far driven it several times with no problems.

Thanks again for the help.
