I have a problem plaquing my M37. If I run the truck for a while (drive 10 miles till everthing gets good and hot) and park the truck, it will not start again until it cools down. This is not a fuel delivery problem. If I remove a spark plug I have horrible spark. (orange and small) If i open the points and wipe them once with emery paper, it will start immediately. I have replaced the coil, condensor, and points and this has not cured the problem. I tested the situation after adding each componant. I set the points to 20 thousandths per the manual. I am really confused as to why this is happening. I hope someone can shep a little light on my problem.

Thanks for the great forum and all the help!

Oh, on a brighter note, Jill and I went to the Hooters truck show in Bloomington, Illinois. I won the trophy for best vintage!
