After being off the road for almost two years with a broken rear end (the car, not me), I finally got my TR 3 back together again. While I was waiting for the rear end to be rebuilt I put in new points, condensor and plugs. Now the car has a very bad miss at all RPMs.
I pulled the plugs and they are all very sooty looking, so I got out my Colortune thinking it was way rich, but the mix didn't look very far off.
The miss is so bad that I have to tickle the throttle to keep it idling and it doesn't smooth out at speed at all, it still misses at all engine speeds.
Anyone have any ideas what I managed to do to my car?
My first guess is that I messed up the points change somehow, and I am the first to admit that I know very little about how to set points.
