I think the backfiring is a clue to an ignition
problem.

I drove my 60 matador about a hundred miles today with
no problems at all. After I came home for a few hours I needed to leave
again and the car would stall at allmost every red light. On the way
back it became worse and worse until by the time I got it home it
wouldn't run in any gear but neutral. It back fired a couple of times on
the way back. Any ideas why it would be doing this? I replaced the
plugs,wires,points,condensor,rotor,dist. cap, and coil right after I
bought it about a month ago. It's been running perfect up until this
evening.
Thanks,
Duane Ballard
