1978 ford 4x4 running problems
i have a 78 ford 4x4 f150, its got a 351m to a 400. i got the truck not too long ago, and drove it for a couple of days and it started spuddering, so i timed it, put new plug, wires cap and button. and it kept on spuddering wen i drove it, it would idle fine but wen u put a load on it it would spudder, so i put a edelbrock 650 on it and it did a lil better, so i checked the vaccum advance and it was moving the distributor thing like it should, im not sure what the problem is, could it be fuel pump, coil or sumthing else,
