<VV> Surging at cruise

[Sethracer at aol.com]

First try just removing and plugging the vacuum advance hose and see if  
that stops the surging. You might want to check the play in the tip of the  
vacuum advance arm to make sure it isn't worn too much. This is not a cure, 
but  if neither of these things help, you know it is likely in the carbs or 
linkage.  Or you could learn to "jiggle the gas pedal just a bit" in the 
opposite  direction at the opposite time! (Good luck with that!) - Seth

As Bryan is a veteran and the car is fine  both on and off throttle, and 
just surges at steady throttle I'd suggest you  check your linkage under the 
car.  The nylon and spoked rubber pieces are  almost 50 years old.  If the 
linkage has too much play then normal drive  train movement will be able to 
cause a surging engine.  Been there twice  with two of my cars.
