Ground wire from distributor to coil? Might be frayed/shorted/internally
busted & intermittent. Check insulation for worn spots that could be
shorting wire to chassis. (Just a thought.)
Good luck,

> 1967 Monza coupe,  pg, 95 h.p.      I took this car out on a drive this week and it started missing, sputtering.  I pulled into a station and filled her up with gas.  The car ran better so I just thought I had some poor gas.  Later drove it some more and started the missing, bucking at highway speed, and some times quitting for a moment.   Today I cranked her up and it ran poorly in the garage.  Then it wouldn&#39;t start.  There is fuel going to the carbs as I cracked the lines at the carbs and cranked it.  I have a weak voltage on the positive side of the coil.  Points, condenser, rotor, and cap are new.  I put my timing light on it and didn&#39;t have any spark.  Tried a new coil on it, too.  Any suggestions?  Thanks, Ernie in Louisville, ky.
