When I start to accelerate my mustang shakes. When I apply more power it picks up and goes. Trying to coast at 5 to 10 MPH is when the most shake is. Can anyone direct me in the right direction. Thanks for the help.

Chad,

It seems your accelater pump in the carb isn't squirting, or your advance isn't advancing your timing. Where do we start? When you open the throttle with the air cleaner off do you see gas squirting into the bores of the carb?
