Chrysler M360 low rpm cutout under load

[pontifor]

Hi,

I have a 1973 Chrysler M360, runs ok but at low RPM ( i.e. 800 rpm ) the motor struggles and dies when I engage the drive, especially reverse.

Actions take so far that did not fix the problem..

- replace distributor cap, wires, plugs
- check fuel filter
- jump neutral switch

This is intermittent, it did it, stopped doing it for a week or two and now started again, any suggestions of what to try would be appreciated!

thx,
S

no ideas? I replaced the battery terminals, no luck, runs like a champ till I engage the drive then sputters and dies..?
