I am going up to a parts store and getting cap, rotor, head gasket (to
save another trip, if it is that, if not, a spare doesn't hurt anyone).
I will get my points and condenser (Standard/Blue Streak) in town and
replace those. The puzzling thing is the exhaust being so weak I can
kill it by covering it with my hand............
