Hey all! I have a 73 Mach 1. Took it for a drive back and forth to gas station today and started and ran good. Got home parked it for a few hours.
Ended up getting a new Cap, Rotors, and plug wires today in mail today and installing (did plugs a few weeks ago)
After I went to start it up was getting a real rough idle, wouldn't idle past 500 when normally at 800-900 range and would only stay running while giving her gas but without will sputter & die out within seconds. I do believe the starter is on its way out because it is loud and continues whirling after it stalls, can a failing starter show these symptoms? I just wanted to get some better opinions! (I'm a newbie)
Checked the firing order and that's correct as well
