Hello again,
Thanks for all the input from you folks out there. My 65 Newport was struggling, popping through the carb and running rough. On, I believe, Big John's suggestion I kept it simple, found a few seriously fouled plugs. I put in new AC plugs and also changed the coil. It started up normally and popping gone. Took it for a ride and all seems fine. Still need to get on highway for good sustained speed but it did ok. Dealt with a hill, no popping, handled traffic and a trip to the grocery store just fine !! The crabby Newport rides again ! Appreciate the pointers and support !
