You are not going to believe this, I went out and put a flex fan on the 65, and was letting it idle to see how the temp would do, and after about ten minutes, it started doing the same exact thing as before!

idling rough, almost dying, and it would "catch its breath" so to speak and almost die and repeat the cycle, I went to drive it and it will no longer even run. I have not yet pulled off the cap to look at the points, I am so disappointed.

It has a new ign switch on it now as well.

when I put three gauge set on, I wired the amp meter and the gauge lights (red wires) to what is now clear to me a terminal on the ignition switch. There are two terminals on the switch that have nuts on them, I thought this was a fuseable link, could this be part of my problem?
