I have a 51 M i just bought and I cannot seem to get to run right. It pops and sounds like it is missing at idle and half throttle but will smooth out pretty good under load. Carb has been went thru and I cannot find any air leaks,I even tried the propane torch trick I have heard about. I adjusted the valves also. I replaced plugs and have checked all plug wires as well. I did not replace points but they looked fine and point gap was fine. I am running out of ideas and am almost at my wits end. Hopefully some of you who have a lot more experience can help with ideas. Any would be appreciated. Thanks in advance... Scott

I'm going to add that a distributor with a broken advance mechanism will do that.
A bad distributor bushing will also cause irratic timing that mayclear up at speed. JimN

I almost suspect a carb adjusment may be in order.

Try replacing the condensor.
