1966 122S PERSISTENT INTAKE MANIFOLD BACKFIRE

Thanks Phil,

I'll give it a look this weekend- but wondering, wouldn't a worn exhaust lobe be apparent in the compression test?

Also, it started overheating when stopped in traffic around the same time that the backfire problem began, and I've noticed that the timing mark jumps around a bit when I'm looking with the light.

Took the distributor apart and checked / cleaned the centrifugal advance mechanism, it all seems fine.
