NO change with the new carb kit installed.
Despite having changed the points recently I am thinking there is an issue with the ignition system. How can I test the dist to see if it is worn out ? \
As far as the distributor goes, the points base plate moves more side to side more then I believe it should. It may be time for another. I guess going to electronic i s best if I am changing it out ?

Also the butterfly shaft on the carb seems to be worn also. I have a Motorcraft 2100 2 bbl. It has #57 jets in it. Is this correct for the 391 ?

I am doing a compression check next.

Any more suggestions are welcome.
