Model “A” Bucking at 45 mph plus
The car is a “A” with indented firewall with a “B” engine, “A” head, converted to 12V, running a “B” carb and “B” distributor, 3.0-ohm coil, new condenser, cleaned points and replaced inline gas filter. The car idles well and runs well up to 42-44 mph. As speed is gradually increased to 50-55 mph the engine starts bucking and will to continue to buck until the speed is decreased to 42-45 mph again and then run well. The car has been driven 25 + miles at one time during the same day with the same response each time. A response to a solution from the members of the Ford barn membership is appreciated.
