Let me see. The fuel in the manifold, is caused by the float valve in
the carburetor from not closing all the way. Next time the engine is
hot, remove the air filter. When you shut the engine off, look inside
the carb. I bet you see fuel dripping into the manifold. Some work
better than others (drip less). I also leaned my carb fuel mixture by
changing to a smaller fuel jet and a larger air jet. The engine runs
leaner and has better power but the engine also runs a little warmer. As
for the miss fire problem, change the condenser. I was sitting at a
light on my to work. I pushed on the gas and the car almost stalled. I
had to just lightly touch the gas to get out of the intersection. Points
and plugs were good, wires and coil were good, had good spark. It just
wouldn't go. Finally changed the condenser and that was that. Now I
carry a spare.
