Hi all, could use a little advice/insight on 73 midget.  I'm not much of a
mechanic, but I'm learning little by little.  Here is what happens.
Start her up runs fine, warms up drive around, get on freeway.  RPMs up to a
steady 3500 for about two minutes and then she starts to cut out badly, but
it only seems to be on 2 cylinders.  If I keep the rpms up I can limp home.
Thought I may have had bad gas, water gas, used some HEAT to no effect.
Checked Dash pots, fine.  Changed plugs, problem still occurs.  Once I'm off
the freeway about 2 miles the problem goes away?
2nd issue.  I've replaced the almost all of the seals and still can't get
rid of a leak behind the dash.  I live in the Seattle area so you can see
that it would be important. This happens even when sitting in the drizzle.
Help.
Thanks
Rob
