Carb
With all the missing i been haveing we found that the distrib braker plate was bad had to replace it found that it improved the hesitation to almost nothing it also helped the water temp so by replacing the distrib it took care of two things but we are going to change jets in carb to see if it will improve the rest was surprised that it fix the problem know

carb problems
After wwe replaced the distrib we got in to the carb found that the float was set to low adjusted the float level well that took the rest of the hesitation out now i have to look at the auto choke to see if that is working found that it was stuck but will check. After you send your carb in to Pony Carb and spend $300 to get it fix and you find that the carb was out of adjustment with all this you wounder if a gt of mineral spirts and a rebuiling kit would have done better and doing it your self

I had my Bronco's Motorcraft 2100 recently rebuilt by Rob's Carburetor here in Phoenix. I'll hopefully have it reinstalled shortly to form an opinion of their work. They come highly recommended by locals. It's one of those total hole in the wall places. Their web site doesn't even work, but they seem to know what they're doing.
I only mention it in case Rob isn't still rebuilding them. If he is then he would be your first choice I think.

Tom,
I can help you, but proper tuning is a balance of timing, carb setting, and other factors. I can wet set this carb on a 289 and know it is good, but then it becomes your responsibility to ensure the engine is sound, has no air leaks, and other things. My e-mail is robvalcampbell@comcast.net. I prefer to communicate that way if you want to go further.
