Good Morning Everyone!

Yesterday I took my 62 WM300 out for a test run. After driving down the road for 3 minutes or so I started to lose power and it started bucking.

It gets to the point where it will almost stalls out. The only thing that stops it from stalling is when I push in the clutch.

I checked the distributor cap, no cracks, but one of the clips that holds the cap on was rusted and loose. This could have caused a loose distributor cap, but it appeared tight. I ordered new clips.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what else this might be?

Thanks for the help!
